So about a week ago I took a bad step off of a ladder. The result was a dislocated knee, a torn ACL and a severed quadriceps tendon. I had surgery on Thursday and came home yesterday afternoon. This will be my view for a few days.

Sorry to hear this, DJ. Hope you rebound quickly. Sounds like you will.

Monday we'll find out if my wife will need surgery after fracturing radius and ulna at the wrist.

I know a lot of people who’ve told me that past a certain age, they decided never to get on a ladder again. Anything that required being on a ladder, got hired out.

Don't mind the ladder, but about a year ago I decided no more going on the roof.

She's tough, but I just want to get out of doing her chores.

My problem is, I have no innate fear of heights, but I probably should.

I'm also not as strong or flexible as I remember and I wear bifocals now. I probably should stay off ladders at this point...

I rarely go on pitched roofs anymore, most of my work is on flat roofs.

Glad it was not worse, but it still sucks! Try to be patient with recovery and best wishes healing. It takes serious cojones to re-set your own knee. Glad you were able to.

Heights aren’t bad, but the unplanned landings can be

I made this little pole barn lean-too thing a little while back and, as I was building it, I was casually walking across the girders as I used to do and managed to get hurt when I fell because you can't just do shit like that if you wear bifocals.

So this is pretty cool.

Looked good, but expensive @ $.9.99 a bag. The Ling Ling.

So naturally thought they must taste great at that price point.

They do to NOT taste good at all, the
selling point was the 2 packets of frozen
soy dipping sause, they called dipping sauce, totally sucked, homemade is WAY better!

The pork was bland and the flour wrapper was too chewy and thick. Huge disappointment,, but it did smell good while
steaming them.

Would NOT ever buy again or recommend them.

(The Ling Ling Brand):




The normal kick butt brand that tastes delicious and only &3.49/ bag.

I’m not afraid of heights either. It’s falling through/off them and hitting the ground that worries me.
