Back in 2002 when I wrote the bucket list, trampolines were just becoming popular and we were too old to have one. Since then I always wanted to jump on one which is why it went on the bucket list. I figured someone I knew would get one. I just didn't think it would take 20+ years.
We were at my nephew's birthday party and I look out the window and see a trampoline. It wasn't there the last time we were over so I wasn't entirely sure it was theirs or their neighbors. I asked and was told yes by my sister-in-law and then I asked if I could jump on it. She said sure.
I dragged the birthday boy outside with me to document this adventure.
I will be honest I was slightly afraid of actually jumping on the trampoline once I got outside. I was seriously afraid of hurting myself. I've heard horror stories of injuries on trampolines. I highly doubt the hubby would be amused if I hurt myself jumping on a trampoline that I probably should not have been jumping on in the first place.
Trampolines move a whole lot more than I expected it. It took me a few tries to get my balance so I could actually jump.
I jumped a few times and then let myself bounce on my butt instead. I actually think the bouncing was more fun.
Okay this was a been there, done that moment. I really don't need to jump on another trampoline in my life. Maybe if I was 20 years younger I would feel differently. I may have lost my sense for crazy adventures... or maybe I just like my bones intact.
