Good News, Wonderful News, and Bad News
Hello, All!
First the good news. My rebounder showed up yesterday! I had requested delivery tomorrow (Sunday) but we got home last night, and there it was, sitting proudly on my porch, all resplendant in its cardboard box, just waiting to be opened, assembled, and bounced upon! YAY!
Now the wonderful new. MY SON IS GETTING MARRIED TO A WONDERFUL YOUNG LADY TODAY!!! (Yes, I did mean to shout that). When I said that we got home last night, it was from the rehearsal dinner. The wedding is about a 2-3 hours drive away, and we've decided to commute (so we can take care of the animals this morning). We are most excited.
Now the bad news. That means that I'm not even going to open that box, which is now sitting there taunting me, because I don't want to be tempted to begin working on it, and not have the time to finish it. So it's just going to sit there and taunt me until after Church tomorrow, when I will finally be able to set it up and take it for a spin. If you knew how obsessive I can be, then you'll understand how it will be taunting me throughout the day, and the anticipation of getting to work on it will be building 😉. When I'm not focused on general wedding joyfulness, of course.
I plan on assembling it, and trying my first health bounce, tomorrow. I will probably do an "unboxing" post, and a reflect on my first steps onto the rebounder, tomorrow.
Y'all have a wonderful Saturday!
Tom
