05/20/09 Anxious, Yet Fearless!

So, I was thinking about the jeep tour the fam told me they took in AZ. It was a lil hair-raising for some at times. We joked that I would have loved it.

AND I WOULD HAVE! To death - maybe literally, from the description of the trail? lol.

I think I've always been like that. I'm told that as a baby, I was a climber. On the other hand, I had colic and was irrationally upset by the loss of my pacifier. (Hello, food addiction!)

I thought back to when we were in elementary school. Dad was driving us there one winter day and took the Townline Hill - steep, narrow, curvy with a ravine along one side. We started skidding for a bit. Amy - & even Dad - were a little scared.

...I, however, thought it was a hoot! (I think I was even told to be quiet! lol. Imagine that!)

I started wondering how I can have anxiety issues, but not worry about dying? How the heck does THAT work?

Why does some speed bump in my life throw me for complete crazy-loop... but the big things hardly register?

I wanna know: Do you worry more about life or death?

05/14/09 Sign Project #1

My sign project. These are 8 foot x 8 foot...and there are 3 of them to be done. There will also be an 8x8 or 4x8 sign listing donors to the project, as well as repainted metal signs for the outside of the building.

These signs and the purchase of two coolers and a freezer are part of a grant I applied for through the Griggs-Steele Empowerment Zone. Donations of money and time by area citizens/businesses comprise the matching funds.

Now, to finish 'em and put 'em up!
