I just bruised my knee and my dignity.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

May I suggest everyone stop falling down?

Just in case that would help.

I have to ask. What was our disagreement on gerunds?

I have not fallen today. Most days over the last couple of weeks, the floor and I have been more intimate than I'm comfortable with. I'm getting better with the knee scooter. Sidewalks, ramps, and such are treacherous. And that is without ice! For the folks who use mobility devices on the daily, how do you do it? I almost went over the handlebars of my scooter because the sidewalk was uneven in front of my doctors office.

Excellent!!

Yeah, practice has got to help with some things, but it can only get you so far. (Source: I once drove someone's electric scooter several blocks.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I want to not.

Just in general.

I've done a lot of work the last week and a half, fixed a bunch of stuff, caught a bunch of mistakes, cleaned up a bunch of paperwork, and now I want time off from all of it, and life in general.

I'd like a sabbatical.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Hubs's sister had an electric scooter, which I moved around a few times. I needed a little practice, mostly to learn how to work the controls to get a speed between "full speed" and "full stop."

OMG yes. I have this issue when I have used store's electric scooter/shopping cart thing. Whiplash for the first half of the store and then I find the sweet spot.

Our wings are not tired

How about a hammock strung between a tree and a fence post?

I'm a purist, you need trees. We don't have a hammock because currently we only have one suitable tree. Eventually the other palm tree will grow, at that time it can have a hammock.

I'm always so tempted to claim an injury so I can drive around the store.
