DEJA VU?

After Casey's legs had gone out from under her, I assumed it was only going to be a one time experience.  Her weakened hind quarters, coupled with a highly waxed floor, are the requirements for a slip and fall, so when we were at the Lake Avenue Elementary School two weeks later, a slip and fall was unexpected.  The floors in Lake Avenue are not as highly waxed as Maple Avenue and some of thr rooms have rugs or carpeting.  Anyway, we finished work at Lake Avenue and headed to the front door to leave.  When we got about 3/4s of the way there, Casey went down.  Fortunately, one of the custodial staff, Joe, was present, and immediately got a flat-bed cart for Casey.  We put her on the cart and Joe wheeled her out of the school.  Casey was really enjoying herself, and although I think she could have gotten up anytime, she got Joe to wheel her all the way out to the street.  I accused her of really milking this opportunity
