Instead of charging downstairs you pause at the top and adjust your footing.

learned the other night
not to close my eyes on the way into the bedroom
the door moved and i nailed it.
luckily not very hard.

our stairs are not all the same height
being careful is always a good idea.
i lost the last 2 when i closed my eyes could of winters ago
sometimes I think the whole damn house is moving.

The stairs here are narrow- with a stairlift on them that you have to squeeze past.
