Well, it was bad news that my dry suit had to go into the shop for a leak repair about two weeks ago. While it was there, I had them put knee pads on it, since I have a propensity for falling down while trying to get into and out of the water. I have been fortunate enough to enter into a joint custody agreement of a similar suit with an instructor friend, but today, my suit came back and I got to dive it. That's part of the good news.
They fixed the leak. That's also good news.
They also created a much bigger -- huge, in fact -- leak in my left knee. That's the bad news.
It didn't stop me from having over an hour's very enjoyable dive today, even if it was a bit chilly and squishy in spots. That's good news.
The suit will be going back to the shop, but the shop repair guy is going to DEMA, so who knows when it will get fixed. That's bad news.
The LDS owner says he will take it upon himself to ensure that I have a suit to dive while it is being fixed again. Bless him. That's very good news.
I feel like a ping pong ball, battered between positives and negatives today. My signature line seems quite ironically appropriate at the moment.
