oh boy....this sounds familiar. I started lessons 2 years ago...had some medical issues arise and then decided that before I actually did the lessons that maybe I should do a tandem to see if I really liked jumping. On my first tandem, my fiance had some problems -- he had just gotten off student status--- pulled low. He didn't get hurt, but i really had a hard time enjoying my jump when he was having visible problems below me. My 2nd tandem came and went....i still wasn't sure. On my last tandem, I landed and knew that I wanted to take lessons. The bug had bitten me. However, it was the end of the season and I didn't want to start lessons and go through the winter without being able to jump....
I start lessons in one week, and I ask myself the same questions that you are asking yourself. I am an ER nurse by trade and have come to the conclusion that life is too short - and that you should live life to the absolute fullest....whatever that entails to each individual. I don't want to live my life wanting to do something and never doing it. Sooooo.....I am starting to jump and am going to complete the classes and go from there. I have spent the last two years hanging out at the drop zone and love it there. Whatever conclusion you come to, I wish you luck in your adventures DPH # 2
