New Year, New Furniture?

The New Year is Almost Here!

When the new year gets closer, a lot of people may begin thinking of new year's resolutions. For many people, the new year represents a great time to make changes in their lives. Some people make decisions to lose weight, some say they will travel more. Regardless of what people choose, it's typically a choice to improve one's health or lifestyle. 

One year, I decided that I would do something that scared me. In my mind, it was going to be an activity like bungee jumping or skydiving. What ended up happening is that I got laid off from my work at the time. After a few weeks of searching, I came across a job working as a boilermaker. I ended up doing one job where I had to go inside a dark metal drum that was about 40 feet long and about 3 feet in diameter. The hole to enter the drum was significantly smaller, and that was when I discovered how claustrophobic I really was. Let me tell you, that was some fear. I began to panic, and it became hard to breath. The hole-watch guy had to talk to me and help me calm down. I got out of the drum and went to my boss to tell him about my experience. He basically said to me that if I didn't want to do it, I could go home. It was at that moment that I decided to do something that scared me. I went back in and finished my work. I always felt on the edge of a nervous breakdown when I had to get back in any drum. 

Almost at the end of the year, I had to travel for a job where I was required to make repairs on some machinery 8 stories in the air. While this detail may not be a big deal to most people, I also suffer from acrophobia, too. It took a lot of effort to do that climb, but it was another instant of deciding it was worth it to be able to pay my bills and eat rather than lose a job. However, my legs shake just climbing a household ladder. I know when I help my dad work on a roof, he just laughs and laughs about how bad my legs shake. Let's just say the guys I worked with were having a lot of fun at my expense.  Anyway, the point of my story is, be careful what you resolve for... It just might come true.
