Extreme skydiving?I have ordered heelys.
I had to promise G I wouldn't try wearing them alone. I might not be able to do it, but I am fed up of wondering about things I cannot do. I am going to see what else I can do. .

Master might stay home tomorrow, mostly just to have a day, but also because I have some stressful papers to sign. I can do it alone, doesn't mean I want to tho...
I want to try it too, now I have seen it, but I'd be quite a lot scared.
The heelys are almost certainly a recipe for disaster. I fall over walking quite a lot, and sometimes, though hardly ever now, use a walking stick. I am feeling very triumphant because after a stressful time on Thursday I managed a walk I know I couldn't manage quite recently, and little guy....a very fit dog, found it satisfying, because it was a warm day. It used to be in that City the hills made it hard for me to get around at all, even with a stick, but I was marching about like a soldier.
Thing is, I have wanted wheels on my feet for a while. And g said it was cheap enough for me to try and realise I couldn't yet or find I can. Even if I just wheel up and down the kitchen bench, it will be something. I might manage th farmyard. .
Or the jump of the edge of the sheer drop for skydiving. . You don't know until you try, right
I ordered European 39. I am finding modern shoes have real disparity in fit though. I have some bigger shoes that are uncomfortably tight, and smaller ones that are loose. I have been known to buy shoes too big or too small because they are the last left in a sale and I think 'I'll suffer' or 'I'll buy sheepskin insoles'. I don't do that in real life any more, but e buying shoes is really tricky.
I might just hang on to G and have him walk around, but my idea would be to walk the dogs in them.
I also really want to ride a bike. Theoretically this shouldn't be so easy, and it's further to fall, but I found adult stabilisers on line the other day!
Hmnm so apparently a European women's 39 is a US women's 8 or so.....I do happen to have a pair of men's 6/women's 7 rental skates from the skating job. Need to repair them, but they should be in good working order. If not, I am sure that Amazon or some stores still sell skates, about $50 or so.....not the best quality (longevity wise), but great to train in.
Lol.....I think that's cheating....but I like your style.
We all had to start somewhere....one of my nephews has a tricycle that he rides around, it's basically like an exercise bike with a front wheel and two rear ones. Just make sure to find your balance and stick to it.
Master used to work at a skating rink too. He always made it look so easy
It's been too long since I've gone skating....could do some tricks, but it's not like I was Gene Kelly or anything like that.
It was terrific exercise.
So, how do you feel about towing me around when g isn't available. . No tricks,..just, getting on with your day, me hanging on to your waist band or something.
