I gotta go-- Hopefully I'll get some decent sleep...
I haven't been able to rest well. I fell off the ladder
putting the lights on the xmas tree-- fell about 3 feet
(1+ meter) onto the living room floor. The tree ended
up on top of me along with the ladder. I've been pretty
sore. Nothing broken, thankfully. But I'm not as young
as I used to be and everything hurts more.
How about that for a pic? me falling backwards off of
a ladder while decorating?
