We had an awesome afternoon rain that I just had to be in the middle of so I went to the roof as the storm was coming in! It was incredible!!! Beautiful clouds! The rain started and intensified at just the right moments as I was worshipping! Perfect!!!! Then I had to go down the stairs...
These cement steps get really slick when wet and my shoes have NO traction on them! So I was taking it slow and stopped to talk to Ruth for a minute (she was on her way up to their house as I was on my way down to my room so we paused a moment just a few steps below their level). We said our good-byes and she headed into the house. I started down, again being careful, but it was no use. My feet went sliding right out from under me!!!
Thankfully, I managed to get both hands on the railing with a strong enough grip to keep from hitting the stairs and sliding to the next landing down. I sat on the step for a split second thinking first, "did that really just happen?" followed quickly by, "did anyone see that?" before continuing my way down, this time making it down without incident.
