We have been tossing around the idea for a while now. Weighing our pros and cons...and we've have finally decided to suck it up and buy a YMCA membership. I get a very nice incentive from my work that we can use towards 1/3 of the cost, and in looking at the pros of it it's going to be an investment in our health, which is really in the long run going to save us money. If we are healthier people now we will hopefully run into less expensive medical bills for our future. (Cost was the ONLY con we could come up with, which we can afford it for now. If we get into a situation where we cannot afford it, we are signing up for the month to month membership, so we could cancel if necessary. Also, the cost con is completely negated by all of the benefits for our health) Allen LOVES to swim, I like it a lot too. The Y is only a five minute drive from our house, so it's going to be very convenient. We're going to go on Thursday. We were going to go get it tomorrow, but Josh wants us to come fishing with him, and since it's only one and half more weeks until the 4th of July fish fry, we'd better give him as much help as we can.
So, Allen called an 800 number for a job ad that was in the paper for an emergency med tech, paid training offered. It ended up being a phone number for the Navy...and I call shenanigans on that!!!!! What the heck! The guy that Allen talked to though, said they are seeing record enlistments...which is probably true because of the job market right now. I have a lot of respect and love for our service men and women, but I don't really want my husband to be one of them. I would miss him WAY too much.
