That is how i must have thought but it was so quick my wrist was broken sore and red within seconds and I was on the bathroom floor, i must say though carpets are kinder to us than tiles, hope this wasn't you my friend? Hugs, blessings, Jennifer.

The key is “perfect retort.” But I love everyone’s take on this one. No one fell but it could be interpreted that way. Thanks, Jennifer. Hugs and Blessings ~ Kim

No. I’m fine. There is a French term - a witty remark that occurs to you too late, literally on your way down the stairs.

Blushing…key verse is “perfect retort.”
