  Gutter Update
About 20 minutes into my gutter cleaning assignment, I fell off my ladder. To make matters worse everyone I had talked to earlier that morning said, "don't fall." I reassured everyone that I was not going to fall and that I knew what I was doing. After all, I am woman hear me roar. What ever happened to Helen Reddy anyway.

My injuries are nothing serious although, my hip still feels a little out of wack. Although, I did not finish the gutters, I did clean out the front hall and most of the shed. So all in all still a fairly productive day. Today I am working for pay, thank God, I don't think my body could take it.
 
Comments:
Dont fall, it gets you down!
 
working in the office is always easier than manual labor

boy am I glad I didn't get on that ladder the other day
 
Ok, you will need to teach me how to tag you. I am clueless......
(Can you say pathetic???) LOL
 
oh, I'm glad you're ok
 
Man that was an awful song wasn't it? What DID happen to her is right? I am glad to hear you didn't break anything. Our gutters are full of crap from roofing but I think I'll send my gf out for that job. I'm afraid to stand on a chair!!!!
Peace,
Scout
 
I am glad you are ok
take it easy this weekend and I hear you roar!
 
I am woman hear me go ..."AAAHHH"....
as I fall off the ladder.. LMAO!

Sorry..lol

Well good thing you didn't break your bum or your hip and like the true champ that you are Trudge,
you trudged on in to the house and cleaned the front hall..!

Great to hear you are working for pay today...I need to get to that work thingy soon too! Good for you :)

Thanks for sharing~
 
I'm so glad you didn't get seriously hurt! Is there a Gutter Helmet in your future??? :)
 
Trudg, alcoholics...they're told to turn right and they turn left....they're told don't fall and they fall....why do we need the steps? so we can go up the ladder without falling....D
 
Glad you're okay.
 
don't be fallin' for any of that Iowa voodoo chiroprackty stuff if you seem to be getting a delayed pain reaction, Mrs. Trudge. (Ever read what Mencken had to say about chiroprackty?) (He scoffed). Ice pack or something.

wait! wait wait wait

I don't know what I'm talking about. I pass.
 
Yikes -- glad you're OK!
 
Thank god your not 75 years old. yeah how would you get up the ladder at that age.. I am glad your ok and that is the main thing. Try wearing shoes next time.
 
Ouch!

A girl falling off a ladder is not pretty. Come on over, and I will give you some pointers.....

Glad to hear you are okay.
 
I am glad you are ok and hope you have no lasting results.

That's a tough job, by the way.
