    Are the falls related to being tired? You seem to fall more on tired days...
    Anyway, hoping you are okay :)

    This is true.

    Anyway none of this crap matters does it.
    Just had a phone call to say a dear friend has died suddenly.
    So treasure those you love & tell them you love them.
    Heaven will have another shining star tonight.
