What’s up with THAT? How did you trip? Outside on the trails? Getting off or on your BIKE? Rushing around somewhere?

Are you a serial tripper? :)

Hope it doesn’t hurt to post. We would miss your friendly fingers around here.

I am a serial tripper. If there is any hint of moisture, I slip and fall no matter what my footwear is and today, while I was barefoot!

The previous trip and resultant wrist sprain was caused by me tripping UP a step. I was distracted and missed it because I was watching a plane land.

Today I was on the web and the youngest called to me. As I was getting up, my toes (it is the custom here for everyone to leave shoes at the door and be barefoot inside) became caught in the headphone cord and I tripped.

About the shoeless custom, sometimes in the states I forget that it isn’t the custom there. More than one family has been surprised as I stop upon entering a home, brace against a wall and remove my shoes. Hahahaha!
