I could not go to sleep last night (big shock, eh?) because my shoulder and neck muscles were sore, and it took me until now to figure out why.
I've been working on putting together this little mini-trampoline for awhile now. Ok, days. I got 8 out of 48 springs on, and the tension was such that I couldn't stretch anything to get even one more on. Then (a day later) I had the brainy idea of using a tie-down, which you would normally use to strap luggage onto the roof of your car (or van). So I bought one. And even though it was not the right size and didn't work half as well as I thought, I managed to get more springs on by wrapping the thing around my back, putting my feet on the far side of the bottom of the trampoline (because it would tip if I did otherwise), and using my entire body to pull that sucker into place. Ok, so I mangled a finger in the process. Ok, so I still have 8 or 10 springs to attach. It was *progress*!!!!
But as I went to finish the job tonight, I noted that the exact muscles I was trying to use were the ones that had kept me up. Still sore.... but at least I'm getting exercise!
