Oh, Violet, I hope you will be okay, and not too sore.
I am very careful not to fall these days. The last time I fell, I was walking around a house that was for sale. No one was with me, and I sensed I was falling. I turned my ankle and could hardly get up. There was a young man standing at the house next door on his cell phone. He saw it, but said nothing and didn't offer to assist me. My foot was swollen and purple for a month afterwards!

Long ago, when I was 8 or 9 months pregnant, I fell while crossing the street in traffic. No one offered to assist me then either!

Falls can be serious. Maybe shorten your pants!???
Love
Patty
