Sounds very similar...

I used to sleep soundly but after a ladder fall which left my wrist shattered, and then 18 months later a Crocs incident which popped my quad tendon off of my knee cap... I’ve been sleeping pretty crappy.

Pain can wreak major havoc on a person’s sleeping schedule. I can be sound asleep and suddenly wake up with severe pain in my upper back. Don’t even try to speak to me then! I can sit up for an hour or so, and then lay down elsewhere and get a couple more hours of sleep only to wake up again with the same pain a couple hours later. I’ve tried, not only switching locations, but also sleeping positions, and nothing seems to work. More than two to three hours of sleep in the same position results in pain. I’ve finally attributed it to just getting older, since my late mother complained of the same problem.

Oh my gosh, what was the Croc incident?

Ladders scare me.

On 9/11 I look my red/white/blue banner to hang high over my garage door.

Flag flies facing golf course.

I got up on the ladder and when I came down, I missed the last rung, rolled down the driveway and was in the gutter.
Everyone’s house closed up with air conditioning running.

Finally got up, a little sore but fine. Hardly ever get on a ladder again, except to put decorations on tree, hubby does the top.

Interested in Croc story, have a pair.
