Anne the Conquerer

Well I drove to town today and drove around a little bit before handing the steering wheel to Star.  My Mom was along for the ride too.  I got stressed out after a bit.  I haven't had a car for about three years.  Before that I had my Dad's truck and only drove around my little town.  I was in a bad car wreck many years ago and developed a driving phobia.  I'm making great strides in getting over my phobia though.  The main reason I wanted to go to town was to have the guys at Les Schwab check the air pressure in my tires.  The guy put air in one of the tires and said the rest were OK.  Now, I used to check tires myself and all that.  It's just easier this way.  I'm totally happy with myself that I drove the 20 miles or so there and back.  I know, I know, what's the big deal?  Conquering your fears is HUGE.  Just think if there's something you've been avoiding, maybe not for years, but for awhile.  What if you actually did it?  This feels amazing.  Didn't get a whole hell of a lot of other stuff done today.  I didn't even do much shopping.  I'm listening to Dance Pop on Pandora radio. Salt n' Pepa. "Push it"  My cat wants to go outside really bad, Indy was inside all afternoon.  She's sitting on the dinner table.
