The week before the fall, the engineer was here and there is a portion of my stairs where it turns to go up the last five stairs and there is no rail at that turn or up those last five stairs. He is always sure I'm going to fall down the stairs, so he put white hand holds like you see in a bathroom, where the rail stops so there are hand holds from there and up those stairs. There are five of those hand holds. After the fall, those hand holds were very important because I couldn't put my whole weight on that foot and the hand holds made me very steady to get up those stairs and down those stairs there.
Of course, he had a fit when he found out I fell. Now, he wants the whole area where I walk outside surgically clean, and kept insisting I go to the doctor. He is a real pain, the most exact engineer I have ever met, everything must be exact.
I would bet my husband, Bill, has touched every life on this forum. Have you ever eaten a Pringle potato chip? The chips in the tube? Husband Bill was an engineer and he developed the process to make all the chips the same shape so they would fit in the tube. Say, “Thank you, Bill”, every time you eat Pringles potato chips.
Bill also touches every voter in Texas at every election. He wrote the bill that became law when our Texas Legislature passed that bill and it determines who is in your central counting station and how your votes are counted in every county in Texas on election night. You can say, “Thank you, Bill” for your votes getting counted fairly on election night.
I love pringles. Don’t eat many chips nowadays, but I like to keep some for the kids. How neat to know that your hubby had a hand in this great chip.
