I almost fell!!

**Vickie** · Mar 4th, 2008, 12:45 PM

Went out to run a few errands (thought I'd get it done today before we got the snow/ice tomorrow) and stepped onto what I thought was a small puddle of water and it turned out to be ice!!!!!

Luckily, although I slid around some, I didn't fall. That teaches me to be more careful!

Vickie, it is horrible here in London as well.
I slipped as well, but managed to hold onto a parked van.
There is 10 cm of ice at the bus stop where I got off. UGH.

We are supposed to get it tonight/tomorrow. And I do have to go out tomorrow (drs. appt.) but Stan will be with me so at least I can hold onto him. Really isn't bad today, not much on the ground. I should have known better than to step onto the puddle.

Glad you are ok though

and managed to catch a hold of something.

Glad you both are ok!

I had this happen to me I think 3 weeks ago but I did fall, luckily it was on fresh snow so I had some padding, almost slid under the car though!

**Vickie** · Mar 4th, 2008, 14:17 PM

My mom has yelled at me about not getting snowshoes

Don't think I'll mention today to her

Glad that you ladies are okay. Be careful on those slippery conditions, they are sneaky. I think that our weather here is headed for Spring weather, I can't wait. This winter seemed to last forever and was pretty harsh.
