Watch Your Step...it's a DOOZEY!

Last Saturday my husband was going down our stairs intending to go outside and mow the lawn, but didn't quite make it...yes, he fell down the stairs! By evening he finally decided he wasn't just going to shake it off and we spent Saturday night in Urgent Care..what a hot date! After a long wait and some xrays, he was diagnosed with a broken arm and was sent home with a splint, a sling and some pain pills. On the positive side, I got quite a bit of TWILIGHT read that night...every woman in the waiting room, including the receptionist, was reading TWILIGHT or NEW MOON or ECLIPSE...funny huh?!

I think our whole family has fallen on our stairs at some point, so I thought I had better put up a warning, Watch Your Step...it's a DOOZEY! One of the nice things about vinyl is that it is easy to put up and easy to take down. Since you can peel it off without hurting your walls, it is a fun thing to put up for special events, holidays, or to just remind someone that you love them...then change it with the season. It took my husband a few trips up and down the stairs to actually see my new vinyl message as he is trying so hard not to fall again he looks down a lot!

There are lots of fun messages you can put right on your front door too...WELCOME, HAPPY HALLOWEEN, THE WITCH IS IN!, LET IT SNOW!, HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILLY!, IT'S A GIRL! and many more! Put a vinyl love note on the bathroom mirror for a member of your family, or write your goals on your bedroom mirror as a daily reminder. Vinyl words can stay up as long as you want or just until they serve their purpose...hope this gives you some ideas!

PROLOUGUE (Can you tell I've been doing alot of reading lately?!) After going to the an Orthopedic today and getting the Radiologist' report, it doesn't look like my husband broke his arm afterall...good news, we think? He still can't move his arm very much and feels kind of like he was beat up in a fight...and lost! The diagnosis now is that he either did something to his rotator cuff, tore a tendon or just bruised a tendon. Time and a possible MRI will tell?! We are hoping for the bruise...surgery sounds like a four letter word to me!?

Remember to Watch your step...it can be a DOOZEY!
