Old man

This morning I managed to: drop a cutting board on the kitchen floor; drop a coffee cup (empty) on  the living room floor; empty the same coffee cup on the dining room table; and finally (I hope the last mishap of the day) miss the cup while refilling it after spilling it.

I could have let the cutting board on the kitchen floor, but it would have been a navigation hazard. I managed to secure the cutting board and not make of myself another navigation hazard. I also managed to pick up the coffee cup from the living room floor, while remaining on my feet.

The spilled coffee I was not aware of, having placed the cup on the dining room table and then gone to the living room to get something. When returning to the dining room, I saw my daughter-in-law Melissa with a roll of paper towels, which she was using to gather up the coffee I spilled. I apologized. When missing the cup during refill, I cleaned up what I had spilled.

Hmm. Three of the four accidents involved the same coffee cup. Maybe the problem is the cup, not me.

I hit 74 on Wednesday. I hope picking up things gets better.
