What would Cameron do....: Next up...going for a hike!

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!

Next up...going for a hike!

I am so thrilled to say that me and my husband are going to go for a hike this weekend. It's going to be a moderate hike (for me) and a very difficult one (for him). You see, I will be traversing the steep slopes with my water bottle, sunglasses and extra sweatshirt. He will be carrying his stuff plus some other things I might need. The sani can from our boat, compression stockings, motion sickness pills, toilet paper, massage oil, coleman grill, iv fluids, pneumoboots, camera, tripod, laptop, hand sanitizer, rifle, slingshot, pepper spray, sleeping bag, oxygen bottles, nasal cannula, knee brace, neck brace, head gear, slide board and fire extinguisher. If all goes well, this could maybe become a little bonding thing for us!
