Thanks... Maybe I need to learn how to fall correctly. Falling flat down frontwards is not exactly a good way to break a fall... When I was young and fell, I never gave that a second thought...

I fell a couple of times and rolled as I fell, but falling on the grass is not as hard, so it wasn't that painful. When I fell off of my shoe and fractured ribs, it was about 10:00 pm; it was on the sidewalk, which really hurt... I laid out there in the dark for a while thinking my husband or someone would come along, but then the football game was on, and you know how that goes... It hurt alright, but nothing like it did when I tried to get up out of a chair later on.

I guess a person could just die lying there on the sidewalk, unless it was at the end of the fourth quarter...
