I've been married to my husband for 29 years. We have four children and four grandkids.  I'm the department secretary for an automotive safety company. In my spare time (??? spare time???) I sculpt as a hobby and hope one day to do it as a career. www.lorimetcalfdolls.blogspot.com

Lately I have been on a kick of trying new things and I'm trying very hard to not to be so fearful of change or trying new thing. I have been reflecting on this for a while and have come to the conclusion of why I'm feeling this way. It will be 5 year anniversary of the death of my friend in just a few weeks. He was one of the most fearless people I know. I remember thinking at his funeral that I really needed to try to incorporate some of this in my life. I guess this is why I have been doing to rock climbing. I have also been entering my art into more competitions and trying to get it in more publications.

So my work had a forced day off today and a few of the ladies that I work with ask me to go with them to have a girls night out. One girl has a trailer on some land up in the mountains and 4 wheelers etc. I am usually not someone to go along with anything like this. My husband has said many times that I'm not very social... again it's a fear based thing, and 4 wheelers are certainly not something I have ever done. I had a great time even though I got dumped off the 4 wheeler. I sknned up my leg pretty good and my neck is got hurt a bit... I think just a bit strained from the impact of falling. My plan was to run in the morning but my neck was still a bit buggy. When I got home I had a haircut appointment and I even was brave enough to get a different hair style!! Pretty crazy!
