Stay off them ladders when you get up in years!

Had a coworker whose wife insisted on Christmas lights on their two story house so he got up on a ladder and fell. He caught his leg between two rungs & snapped it. Couple weeks later, his wife filed for divorce.

Is that what happened? I can find no information on that.

I was roofing a two story house, some years back, and looked over at the neighboring house. The 93 year old owner was in a tree, a little bit higher than I was, pruning branches.

It’s not only advisable, the costs are far less as well.

You really do not understand how badly even a small fall can mess you up until it happens to you.

About a decade ago we put grab bars up in the parents house. Dad asked us if we thought he was going to take up ballet.

They have both been saved from falling by the bars.

This isn't about getting up in years. Dennis Prager never had the build of someone who should be climbing ladders.
