No muss, no fuss, no struggle bed making. Use a sleeping bag!
It’s not “Better Homes & Gardens” and yet, since I switched to this a few nights ago, life has improved a smidge in a couple areas.
First, I move a lot in the night. I use the restroom at least once. Because of these I lose my blankets and have to get up to retrieve them or to remake the bed. As I result of this, I’ve added a heated mattress pad to the bed so I stay warm and don’t have Raynaud’s at night.
Second, when my hands are sore just gripping blankets in general hurts. Making the bed throughout the night ANDin the morning is a chore. Let’s not talk about washing the linens and dealing with fitted sheets.
So. I bought a sleeping bag. I’ve removed the heated mattress pad, the fitted sheet, and the blanket. Now I just have the comforter/bed spread on the bed and the sleeping bag on top.
As I sleep in the sleeping bag, it moves with me. I keep the bottom and a smidge of the side zipped so it stays together. I stay warm. I stay covered. I’ve slept really well 2/3 of the nights I’ve been using it.
When I get up in the morning I just spin it around to act as a blanket on the foot of the bed. Surprisingly, this is a great shift in the mood to start the day better - making the bed sets the tone and makes me feel like I’m starting off with my shit together. 
The care is super easy. It’s machine washable. Wash. Dry. Put back on the bed.
Boom. Done.
It’s the little things.
Persevere. Rock on.
