And More Tumbling
Last night, when I fell down the stairs for the second time in as many days, Al was there to pick me up off the floor. This time slippery socks were the culprit (it's why I usually wear shoes in the house, to my mother-in-law's horror). Basically, last night's fall was almost entirely different from the day before's; the only thing they had in common were that they were falls down stairs. A quick comparison:
| Wednesday Fall | Thursday Fall | |
|---|---|---|
| Time of Day | Morning | Night |
| Wearing Shoes? | Yes | No |
| Number of Steps Tumbled Down | 2 | 3 |
| Landed On | Front/Side | Rear |
| # of Injuries | 4 (left knee, right ankle, right elbow, back) |
2 (left hand, left shoulder) |
| Staircase | Living Room to Kitchen | Bedroom to Living Room |
| Carrying Baby? | Yes | No |
| Carrying Other Items? | Yes | No |
| Witnesses? | No | Yes |
