Oh yes how easy it is to get down but not so easy getting up. I always have a firm chair close I can crawl up onto and sit for a bit and then stand.

Well, I wear a pair of dongles lest I fall and there is nothing to grip on to haul oneself up.
The bring a not very happy brother if he cannot find me quickly. Nethertheless I try to do exercises to strengthen and restore one's balance. It is a job cutting flowers and doing a balancing act at the same time. It would have been fun to see you enjoying your exercise.

Good for you. I'm happy to hear that you made it back up off of the floor. Exercise is great for the body, mind, and soul. Keep on keeping on...🏋

I see from Pat’s comment that you made it up from the floor. That’s a relief. It’s harder for me than it should be. My knees.

Re: Pat
I only did that once and ended up in the hospital with pneumonia. It was the pneumonia that made me weak and I didn't realize I was sick.

Saw your post on FB, so happy you were able to get up. Last time I ended up on the floor, it led to one of those calls: I've fallen, and I can't get up. A squad of EMT's came and got me to my feet. Embarrassing.
