You might be surprised,
@Collector . I won't recommend it to anyone but you just might be in a very careful state while at Bob's.
I know that I have related this but I was once asked by a nurse how often I fell annually. Somewhat young when I began having daily problems walking, I was still very active, at least, part of the year.
She was poised with her pen, I thought a moment and decided 30x was about right. I didn't fall once a week, unless it was the busy season
. She said "Good Heavens, you should be using a walker if it's that often!"
But, you see, I was falling in a field, the middle of the lawn or on a carpeted floor. I wasn't threading my way through debris or brush. Two things I finally learned was to never, ever look over my shoulder while walking. It was almost a guarantee that I would stumble. Criminy, we need to be as sure-footed as a gazelle to turn and look back while walking The road ahead may be perfectly level and it's still easy to stumble.
The second thing that I learned was to slow down. Think
slooow. Remember Tim Conway as the little olde man on the Carol Burnett Show? Even if he happened to fall down, it was in slow motion and he would stand up, unhurt (much to Harvey Korman's amusement
).
