Note to Self - On Leaving the House at Night

 

Note to self:

If you are going to go outside at night because you just have to cut a sprig of holly for the centerpiece arrangement from that bush in the front yard, and you leave the light off so the neighbors don't see you in your PJs, try to remember how many steps there are from your front porch so you don't fall flat on your ass and retwist your right ankle, which is just starting to heal from the ass-kissing-the-linoleum-incident.  

And try leaving the front door open so your husband can actually hear you when you yell out that you need help getting up.  

Or turn on the damn lights and put a coat on.  

Your choice.

I'd probably choose both?

Yep. Sometimes I get "Think --> Do" in the wrong order.

Ouch! So sorry to hear that.

My problem is I'm too old to count to 39. I'd get to about 14 and totally forget I why I was counting. So I'd just have to resign myself to turning on the lights and showing off my pj's.

Or more likely, I'd say screw the centerpiece and stay inside!

I think you are very wise. "screw the centerpiece and stay inside" is definitely the way to go.
