I’M BOLD… I’ve let an unknown hairstylist chop off all my hair into a look of her choosing, I’ve traveled internationally (with and without companions), I’ve moved across the country on my own (and then drove back on my own when it didn’t work out), and I’m preparing to be inside with two young kids for who-knows-how-long once this blizzard hits!
Casey says

Elizabeth says
I’M BOLD!
When I had only been dating my (now) husband for about 6 weeks, I gave him a ring and a speech about how committed I was to him. We were in college, so he probably should have run away from the crazy lady (me) as fast as he could, but he stuck around until he fell in love with me! Ha!

I guess the boldest thing I have ever done was cut off my long, curly hair after I graduated high school. I was going for a Halle Berry look and people thought I was crazy for cutting it all off.

Christine says
I’M Bold!!!
Something brave I have done is actually pursuing my fiance! I was always very very shy and would never ever make the first move. However, for some reason something came over me and I thought got for it!!! Now three years later he proposed and we just purchased our first home! I could not be more happy that I overcame my fears!
By the way we love your blog and are looking forwarding to using all your tips and ideas in our own house! :)

I’m Bold!
WHile visiting Russia as an exchange student in the 1990’s, I participated in an outdoor picnic (in March, in about 2 feet of snow). The summer house where the picnic was held did not have plumbing, so I just used my natural environment when I had to go to the bathroom.
That was pretty bold for this “raised in the South, middle-class white girl” :)

I’ve moved on a whim more times that I probably should have. Moved to the UK almost 10 years ago and moved from the South to the North for LURVE 2 years ago. Best decisions are from the gut, you know when it’s right :)
