Soooo- in the den putting my socks on yesterday Am and heard a loud crash and a scream in the house- thought a kitchen cabinet had come down- jumped up and ran out into the hall to see the attic door open.
She wasn't there and the kitchen looked OK too- more screaming and yelling for help- from the attic,
Noticed some movement and looked up at the ceiling to see a leg and slipper covered foot protruding from the ceiling- sheetrock and insulation all over on the floor too.
Doing my level best to appear concerned and not break a smile went up and helped her from the hole- NEVER, says I, try to walk off the wood flooring onto the insulation again- she got the point.
Later in the day filled a pant leg with newspaper and stapled one of her slippers on and poked it through the hole- looked pretty good IMHO.
(shes OK)
