LIVE LIFE - SHAKE THINGS UP!

DLR Welcomes today's guest blogger...

DEANNA

Want to take that pole dancing class? Try fly fishing? Start a running regime? Or perhaps pottery making or Russian cooking or learning more about Feng Shui has caught your attention, peeked your interests, or maybe raised an eyebrow – stop thinking about it and sign up. Don’t get overwhelmed by the paperwork, or that you might not be able to swing your ass around the pole, or that the application is too long, or who will watch the kids, sign up, get out of your comfort zone and make it happen.  Live life.

Why? Cause life is too damn short.  We’ve seen enough devastation, illness, kidnappings, craziness a la Charlie Sheen in the last 30 days than anyone really needs to be exposed to.   We can’t worry about the laundry, or the dishes in the sink, or what to make for dinner, it will get done, and we know it will get done, it always gets done. 

FISHNETS & OTHER CONTRAPTIONS

DAWN BOYLE

I have a saying I use with my kids to get them to eat different things "if you try it, you might like it". That being said I have one kid that will try anything and the other - not so much.

Growing up I was so scared to put my toe in to test the waters on many levels. I never ate fish, didn't swim in the ocean til I was a teenager and would NEVER go into a haunted house at an amusment park. I have been implementing my try it-like it theory within myself for a few months...it's amazing what I have found out about myself and how I have learned a love for things I would never imagined eating or doing. Take this blog for instance, a couple of months ago Barbara and I spoke about how much we loved writing.
