The only problem was this time I was about 10 feet up in the air on a ladder. I hate it when the mind is strong and the body is weak. I am not sure if I got dizzy and fell or kind of passed out. When Barb found me, I was unable to say what happened exactly. She made me go to the hospital and basically all they did was kind of clean off the scrapes. I am dinged up and bruised but nothing was broken. I would have felt like they were more serious if they had really wiggled the places I hurt. They did a CT scan of my head in case there was any damage done there. Yes, climbing up on a ladder by myself is a good reason to think I may have damage to my brain.
I will go to the Doctor this morning to see if my blood pressure medicine change was good enough. That alone might be a cause of the fall. I am sure the Doctor will tell me to stay off ladders. I guess I need to hire a kid to do the stupid jobs for me. I can play spotter to keep him from falling. I also have a tractor with a front bucket that will make sure the ladder doesn't fall and that will help. I have a candidate in mind but no confirmation yet.
Yesterday Barb and I went to Lawrence, KS to do a little shopping. I did walk around in Penny's but then went back to the car after one round. Oh well, it was good to get out of the house.
I guess I had better get ready to see the Doctor.
