    I’m bold!

    My brave thing was starting a blog. I’m sorta scared of the internet but I needed to start one this past summer for a specific reason now in the past (yay!!).

    I’m being brave again and deciding not to close it down but to instead try to breathe new life into it. Your blog, although not of the same topic, is definitely an inspiration! Good work! :)

    I’m bold!! The boldest thing I’ve done is work at an overnight camp for underprivileged kids…tough work and incredibly far out of my comfort zone, but so rewarding.

    I’m honestly not sure what the boldest thing I’ve done is, but maybe I need to be a bit bolder at work and ask for a promotion.

    Moved to Amsterdam to do my Masters. It paid off – got my degree and met my amazing Dutch husband too.

    About to sign a lease on a super small studio that will cost 2/3 my monthly income – I cannot WAIT to DIY decorate on the cheap!

    I’M BOLD! I quit my job, left all my friends & family behind, and moved 1,200 miles away to be with a guy I’d only met twice….we’ve been married almost 9 years ;)

    I sing out loud (often in my car), try to live every moment to the fullest and also chopped off a foot of my Marcia Brady-esque hair (for Locks of Love).

    The boldest thing I’ve ever done is moving with my three kidlets and husband to the other side of the world…eek! Scary and expensive but totally worth it in the end :)

    I”N BOLD! I went back to school after my children graduated elementary school (I was in my mid fifties) and became a nursery school teacher. If you think that’s not bold, you’ve never spent a day in a room full of children under 5 years old.

    “I’M BOLD!”

    During my most recent pedicure, I had my nails painted a trendy shade of dark teal. A week later, I bought a pillow at Crate & Barrel in the same color!

    I’m bold! I quit my job that was becoming a horrible fit and consuming my life 6 weeks after I bought my house (by myself) in a horrible economy (11 months ago).

    I then landed the first job I applied for…

    I shaved my head at a cancer head shave for the promise of a $50 donation (I then raised a few hundred more with the proof of the shaved head)

    I teach a preschool class of 3 and 4 year-olds… this means that occasionally I pick human poop up off the floor. Your pants are uncomfortable? Quick! Shake a leg!

    I’m Bold…

    I shaved off all my hair for a friend going through chemo.

    I mohawked my recently grown out hair to wear at work (government office) on the last day of 2010.

    I am planning an entire bathroom re-do this weekend and not telling my husband. Surprise!

    I’M BOLD. Or at least I used to be. I gave the boy I secretly loved a red rose in front of our whole school. His head turned red.

    I’M BOLD…. I once kissed a boy in high school at his job behind a counter I wasn’t supposed to be behind to make him THINK about dating me. We didn’t end up together, for the best, but I NEVER had done anything like that {I’m very modest and old-fashioned about the guy pursuing the girl}

    I quit my marketing job in April, moved to Alaska with one backpack and $150, and overcame my fear of flying by landing in a two-seater plane on a glacier near Mt. McKinley! My life went from a boring white wall to a beautiful mural of adventure!

    my husband and I went paragliding off the top of a mountain in Turkey during our honeymoon! The view was amazing, but the best part was how giddy it made my husband, who studied aerospace and aeronautics when in school.
