Thanks for your support.

I have talked myself into conquering a lot of fears lately. It is very liberating.

Next spring, I have vowed to take swimming lessons. I am pretty afraid of the water, I had a bad experience when I was 5 years old. My idiot BIL thought it would be funny to throw me in a lake. Sink or swim. I sank into about 8 feet of water and almost drowned.

Needless to say, he is no longer my BIL.
