When I was married to my first husband, he called me the “ Prima Klutzarena,”. When I went on various vacations , my coworkers advised my then fiance to” bubble wrap me!”So I totally understand your situation!

Bubble wrap has been recommended for me, as well! Love Prima Klutzarena!

Apparently there are a lot of us from the responses I received.

I can relate. Oh and I think we must be related.

Gail Kent's avatar

There are more of us than I thought!

I have had 2 spectacular falls in public …. Both regarding the little lip on the floor about an inch high on a lot of buildings at the entryway… luckily the only thing that I hurt was my pride…. I am a lot more careful now…..🤦🏼‍♀️

Glad you weren’t hurt. I’m careful, too, but I’m sure it will happen again.

Each time you mentioned falling I cringed hoping you didn't break any bones like I did on my second to the last fall out of six. So relieved! What can we say, it's in our DNA. 😄

I'm with you! If some hot fireman finds me dead naked in a bathtub, I definitely want them to think she's pretty hot for an older women! Giving up really good bread for that? Hmmm I don't know? I mean after all were dead and will never know, so I say, let's eat the bread! Take care, and thanks for the laughs 😃

Thanks Janet! Yeah, it’s the bread that has done me in.

I can fully relate, friends say I should wear helmet and bubble wrap

I’ve been told the same!

After getting my senior dog in for her "senior health exam" I realized I, too, am a senior dog, so I've started with all the major parts in need of service getting checked on. Colon, heart, mind, muscle strength/balance, stamina, etc. As I'm turning 75, I kinda need help knowing what's going on inside to determine how I want to live on the outside. PS, not pregnant either!

Gail Kent's avatar

I’ll be 75 in January! I can barely believe it!

"Yes but I might be pregnant" LOL
