I can laugh about it now but I can tell you that I just sat on the stairs and sobbed...LOL
My worst nightmare! Aside from herniating our backs and splitting our tummies handling those big old plastic pails around, the fall factor was very real... thought of it every single time I lugged that big old white plastic pail of ours in front of me down the stairs. So glad you escaped with only a mess to clean-up.
