I didn't even know I HAD to pee ..

Not my drawing, but accurate none the less.

... until I bounced down the last 4 steps on my butt landing on the basement floor.  Adding insult to injury not only did I need to head for the Ibuprofen, I had to change my clothes as well.  I guess I will assess my injuries sometime after I dust off my pride.


Ouch.


I was thinking - this getting old thing really sucks but I have to admit - yeah, I've always been a total klutz.


Sigh-h-h.


**Edited to add - next step after posting this was shopping - here - 10 pairs of non skid slipper socks for $1.99 a pair.  Nobody beats my mad online shopping skilz!

I float like a butterfly .. okay maybe not.

My middle name is not Grace.  There have been falls.  Sometimes there has been ice involved, or curbs or stoops or even .. ahem .. flat ground.  Sometimes the surface itself is not even involved in the fall - until I hit it, that is.  Cats under my feet do not usually get me, although they try, God knows they do.  But that thing where you move from one spot to another by  putting one foot in front of the other - that tends to be tricky for me.  I have no idea why.


My daughter mentioned the other day that she shudders to think of me buying a house that has stairs I would be treading every day.  Hmm.  My thought has always been - good!  Exercise!  Her thought is - oh no!  Death trap!


Somehow those thoughts have not entered my mind when house-hunting.  Maybe they should.  


Nah!  I'll let my daughter have the thoughts and I'll just be careful.  :)




**Edited to add:  My realtor let me know he was not available on a specific date because he was taking a class.  Since I want to know everything I asked what he was learning.  His answer proves that my unsteady footing is well known.
