I think I’ve posted this topic before but I’m old and my mind isn’t as sharp as it was. So, here it is again: I fell down my steps.

Not a ton of steps, just seven. Seven hard steps.

No, I’m not suffering from NPH again. I’m not dizzy. The ground is not tilting.

I’m just…for lack of a better word…stupid.

I have two banisters but do I use them? Nooooooooo. I have to carry a pitcher of water in one hand and a bag of birdseed in the other and step onto the frozen deck like it’s summertime. La-dee-dee.

Oh oh!

It was 6:30 in the morning with a temperature of 22 degrees.I took a hardy step onto the top of the deck and whoops! baboom-baboom-baboom-baboom.

My final destination was the bottom of the steps, drenched in water and spitting out birdseed.

Inventory time as I lay there in a dazed WTF moment.

I hit the back of my head, shoulders, wrist, and that useless bone – the coccyx. Seriously, why do humans need the coccyx?

So, once again I gave myself a mild concussion (ahhh, memories of when I tripped over the retaining block and knocked myself out – sigh).

My neck is fine and the nausea and headaches have passed but I may have broken my coccyx (I repeat, it’s a useless set of bones) and I’ve bruised the heck out of my backside.

Lesson learned: USE THE HANDRAILS.

Or wear bubblewrap.

Blessed be ;}

Mi manchi profondamente, mio ​​amato immortale.
