postheadericon Gay Mar-3-12

Today was the big day for me; it is the day for my tandem jump. At 8:30 am we went over to see how Grandma was doing and she was still sleeping, we didn’t want to wake her so we left her a note that we would see her this afternoon. At 9:00 am we picked up Larry and Denise and then made a stop at Subway to get some subs to have after my jump. Pam met us at Subway and rode the rest of the way with us. Mike came down with a bad cold and could make it. We got to the airport at 10:30 am and my appointment wasn’t until 11:00 am. I sat down and filled out all the paper work and signed my life away in case anything happened. Bud and Gary came to watch me do my jump. A little later Ron also came to watch. Oh I didn’t tell you; it was a very windy day and after the first group went up there was a weather hold because of the wind. Finally around noon they lifted the weather hold and I took my training and was ready to go. As it turned out I didn’t get to go with this group because I signed up for the video and there weren’t enough video people for me to go. So I am ready to go with the next group and we are in another weather hold. They said to go and get some lunch and be back in an hour. Well we had our lunch with us for a picnic after I did my jump. After lunch they came and told us that all jumps for the rest of the day were canceled. So now I set to do the jump on March 17th. I am not sure why God didn’t want me to jump today but I am sure he will let me know. On the way home we stopped and bought some strawberries, $4.00 for a half a flat which is a good price and they were picked this morning. When we got home we checked on Grandma and Cheri replaced the bandage on her arm. Then we made a trip over to Saves A Lot to get some groceries for the church food pantry. We relaxed the rest of the afternoon and evening.
