wmw999 2,444 #2 August 22, 2018 I am (TSR 2004). You still jumping? Wendy PThere is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
el_chester 4 #3 August 22, 2018 Nice to read you! And no, I haven't jumped since 2011... but maybe one day I'll come back. How about you, still jumping? -- Be careful giving advice. Wise men don't need it, and fools won't heed it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,444 #4 August 22, 2018 Yep. Living in Massachusetts now, so the jumping season is a lot shorter.

I just don't have the discretionary money to spend on skydiving to keep up with it safely. My older girl is in honors classes and making A's and a B here or there. The younger one is more of a challenge, but she's a hard worker. Still does well in school. Never a D or F. We don't raise slackers.
