What would Cameron do....: I never realized that buying a good bra is like buying a new car

The reason I started this blog...

Two years ago, I was flying on a plane to take my son out to visit college prospects. I'm a nervous flyer, so I started reading an article in a magazine about Cameron Diaz. Now, I had never really thought about her other than being in movies, some good, some not so good. But, after reading the article, I was inspired! She does a lot of fun things! It basically said that she never says no to any kind of fun. I wondered what would happen if I started being more like that. I started incorporating the phrase "What would Cameron do?" into my daily life and I have to say, it has made a huge difference. So this blog is basically about me trying to be a more positive person and do things that initially inspire fear, but make my life more exciting! Kind of like the movie "Yes, Man"...but more realistic since I am somebody's mother and I have to plow through those piles of laundry and unload the dishwasher occasionally...Hope you enjoy my journey!

I never realized that buying a good bra is like buying a new car

As an aspiring jogger, I realized the first thing I need is a good bra. Since the only "gym" bra I own is my 14 year old nursing one, I decided that now was the time to take the plunge. Walking into that high end athletic shop was like walking into a used car dealer. They could smell the fear coming out of my pores. There were jogging bras with reinforced straps, side air bags, reflector stripes; some had leather and some had 5 star rated front impact zones. One even offered a 10 year/100,000 mile warranty. Tomorrow I get to wear it for the first time; I am going to get it appraised for my homeowners insurance....
