Good evening, Ray (@ray666)!
I so agree with you. I don't have to go out to get a paper but it scares me half to death to find myself suddenly in the path of fast-moving young people or of folks whose ability to remain standing would not in the least be compromised by bumping into me or stopping suddenly in front of or next to me. Yep - another of PN's delights! Now that I think about it, heavy doors without the wonderful automatic opening function have almost bowled me over, too, especially in the wind.
I hope all is going well with your move, and that you're not letting fatigue get the better of you. Balance is even more precarious, then!
Cheers to you, Ray ~

Hi, Barb
Fetching that morning newspaper is Ray's First Great Adventure of thr the Day.
Our front door has an unusually muscular pneumatic tube that, as you attempt to step out, tries its damnedest to push you back indoors. (We've tried adjusting the tube. No luck.) After that, there's the garden walk. Once you reach the end of the walk, the next giggle is finding where the morning paper, pitched from the passing delivery van, has landed: findable? reachable? beyond the curb? on the roof of my Jeep? unfindable? (always a possibility). All the while, my eyes are darting right and left, knowing that if I'm not vigilant I'm sure to be mowed down by a 80 mph skakeboarder.
Cheers!
