No worries, I was harder on myself than anyone could possibly be.  Whipper had a bad fall earlier in the day right where I slipped.  It had been so nice and warm that all the other ice melted except on that particular place on the patio and the porch light did not show it when I went outside at night I just forgot about looking for ice.  We had 1" of frozen rain 2 days before  - there is still ice on the patio this morning! It is on the North shady side of the house.
Alien nice Z.   I was also eyeing the scooter in the garage for Mom.  Could you tell us a little about it, does it work good in grass, she needs something to run around the yard in, to the burn barrel, propane tank, mailbox and she does not want a golf cart.
Good morning!  35˚F heading to the upper 50s, hopefully all the ice will melt on the patio today.  I have a call to the dr. for an X-ray of the knee. It feels better but still a nagging pain that needs to be checked out.
