I only had my heavy duty spikies with me, but I will remedy that tomorrow. I found another set in the garage of the “regular” ones I usually use. Fortunately I want very slowly and was able to pick footfalls with gravel until I found clean pavement....maybe a 50’ trek.

And coming out a car stopped and let me tiptoe across the intersection to get back to my car. Very nice of him because I am slow and watch where I put every step. Can’t afford to fall. No way to get up by myself...can’t use my knees/feet unless they are below me, like sitting on the stairs.

Hope you are recuperating nicely this evening.

Glad you were able to get across the parking lot ok. Falling would have been bad. It’s too bad you couldn’t get one of the parking spots by the door.

As long as I don’t move, I don’t feel too bad. But when I get up, I hurt all over. Reaching up, bending down, climbing up and down a tall step ladder - all stuff I’m not used to doing for over 6 hours non-stop. Well, we all did sit down for a few minutes to eat pizza. :-)

A long day but it was a fun one.
