That's rough cj! Praying for a full recovery. I really pay attention on stairs. From previous knee injuries I find it safer to slowly walk backward down stairs. I know Mike Holmes the home repair guy on tv watched his dad fall down stairs and die in front of him when he was a kid so that's likely why he wanted to get into the home repair business to build things right preventing anyone else from losing a loved one from poor improper home building. If that's why she fell I hope she gets the stairs fixed after healing up.
I knew I had one somewhere and I found it the first place I looked today.

"Hey, did you ever find that nickel you dropped, yeah but I'm still looking". 🥴😁🤣
I survived yet another labor day weekend as a park ranger. I hoped today would be better than yesterday. Nope.I got a radio call about 3:00 p.m. that a man was exposing himself to ladies at the beach shower station. When I got eyes on the guy I recognized him as someone who had been problematic before. I called LE for back up, sent a ranger to collect statements from the witnesses, and detailed two other rangers to watch the guy. When the LEO got there we had all our ducks in a row and were ready to move. Two LEO and I confronted the perv and he immediately accused everyone involved of lying and trying to frame him including myself and the LEO. This cut no ice with the law. We had written statements from the witnesses but no one wanted to press charges so all they could do was cite him for public indecency and trespassing but that is enough to get him banned from the park for a year.Personally I think the guy deserves what we used to call a "blanket party" when I was in the army.

Nothing quite like a bar of hard GI soap in a sock to modify behavior.
I installed a new stereo with back up camera and wireless car play connect in the 2004 Toyota Sienna. It was tedious but we got it done. It's such a nice upgrade to have.
