6.1.12 EEK! Casting for Recovery

Okay, I haven't mentioned this, or maybe I have... anyhoo. One of the biggest fears I have is about meeting new people and trying new things with new people. I am so much more comfortable with someone I know with me. For instance I will usually only join a group or try something new if I can talk my sisters/ husband into going with me. I am terrified of being around strangers. I'm afraid of being unliked or not good enough or being laughed at? I'm afraid of being unapproachable. So all these fears out there, I am DOING THIS. I recieved a flyer from the Oncology clinic about a thing called Casting for Recovery. It's a weekend event for women who have had or are going through breast cancer. It's a retreat where we learn to fly fish. I've never fly fished before but have always wanted to learn. Hoping my husband and I can have something we can do together. So I contact the people in charge and they ask, they ASK me if I would be interested in catching a ride with a few other participants. I answer very quickly that I would. (WOW, I surprise myself!) Then today is the day. I ride with 2 wonderful other ladies into Wasilla Alaska!


After lunch we meet the rest of the group (15 women total I think!) Then it's off to get our gear. This would have to be my favorite part. I feel so healthy in my gear! See my photo! :) We ended the day by having a fantastic dinner and sitting by the campfire! Life is GOOD! Love you, love me, love you love me!
