blondeflyer7 0 #1 November 4, 2002 Well Mr. Lummy let the cat out of the bag today....so I guess I'll tell my story now. There are a few here that know me and the things I've been through. Most of you have read my posts where there has been alot going on in my life....... On June 24th 2001 I made a Tandom skydive after I was on the ground I knew that skydiving WAS for me. So I went into Tandom progression and then to static line....I was going to the DZ on a regular basis every weekend......Then the divorce I was going through turned my life upsided down and totally messed up my skydiving training...I never quit though.I kept going back doing recurrency hop-n-pops.Then when I would go to altitude I would do nothing but Potato chip in the air...it was soooo furstrating!!!!!!! Then it happened today November 3rd 2002...it was time for me to do my last jump once more...WE went up and did the jump and when I got down I felt I aced it but I had to hear it from the Jump master....then he told me I passed...all I could do is start crying tears of joy....I FINALLY did it...I accomplished my goal and I NEVER GAVE UP. YAHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You always remember if you don't get it the first time....there is always next....you are still skydiving even if your training and that in itself is a conquer...As for life still working on that myself but there again things always work themselves out!!!!Sooo go make a skydive!!!!!!
