In retrospect, this is funny, so I thought I'd share it with everyone. :)

This happened yesterday evening.

My house is two story. You go up two steps, turn left, and then go up the rest of the steps. So I had gone up two steps, was trying to get Joey (my 5 year old) to tell me what he wanted for dinner. He was standing at the top of the steps. The conversation went something like this...

Me: What do you want for dinner?

Joey: Fish sticks and fries.

Me: We don't have fish sticks, how about chick nuggets?

Joey: How about fish sticks.

Me: We don't have fish sticks, what do you want?

Joey: Fish.

Me: (growing impatient) WE DON’T HAVE FISH! What do you want?

Joey: Fish tenders.

Me: (getting angry - we go through this with him often) WE DON'T HAVE FISH!!! How about chicken nuggets.

Joey: Okay - chicken nuggets and french fries.

So, in my frustration, I forgot I was up two step and when I turned to walk away I missed the two steps and took a spill. Now my back is tightening up and my legs hurt. I hate getting old!

:clap:

Two questions. Did Joey ever get his dinner? And did anyone happen to have a camcorder going so we can all view this delightful story? That would be just perfect.

Getting old has it's problems, but it's still better than the alternative.

Hope you're feeling a lot better now.

Haha! I swear that stairs layout is a deathtrap! My parents' house had that going on, and I can't tell you how many times my half-asleep self came down the steps and stepped down on the narrow corner of where the two bottom steps happen and busted my rear.

I fell down the stairs SO MANY TIMES! But yes, I understand that kids know how to push one's buttons ^.^
