Well, I tackled the stairs, and the stairs tackled me. I HAD to go down for swipe. It went okay. The next day, I went after laundry... down and up about six times. My legs are exceedingly sore, and my left foot and ankle are swollen (swelling from inactivity due to the pain). Getting better far too slowly... almost chair-bound for the past three days with my left leg propped up half of the time. But... I have clean laundry. >;-)
