I cannot get/stay comfortable to save my life!

Is it really too much to ask to be comfortable for just a little while?! I've been confined practically to my bed because I'm at the point where my feet are swelling if they aren't propped up. And I had the idea that I could totally sit in the recliner except that ... it's a rocker recliner so the moment you kick the foot prop up it lays back too far for the sort of back support I'm looking for. I even tried just sitting in it with a foot stool in front of it .. nope, it still lays back.

So I thought ... the couch! I moved all my blankets and the foot stool over to the couch, this would be perfect! I could even keep my hot tea right next to me on the end table, awesome! ... except there is no outlet for my laptop to plug in to ... save for the one that is about a foot behind the couch and completely out of my reach ... UGH!

So back into the bedroom I dragged my blankets and laptop and my tea and myself. I want to cry only because I really am so sick of sitting on my bed all day. During the day the husband is at work, and my parents are asleep so it's nice and quiet, which I love. But, if I need anything I have to get it myself, which WOULDN'T be an issue except getting in and out of the bed after getting comfortable is such a hassle. And rather uncomfortable at that when you have a larger than you're used to stomach in the way ... and I get so completely winded with all the shifting an sliding and pushing ... oi! It's kind of depressing :(
