Pamela Aaralyn Channeling

So I did a crazy thing. I took up ice skating. I've skated for five months now.

This is my first show. I chickened out and avoided my spins and a lunge.

But...I got through it okay. So many things threaten to stop me: 

1) I'm a plus sized skater and thought I couldn't possibly do what other skaters do. 

2) Arthritis hurts. 

3) The social dynamics of the rink freak me out.

I’ve decided to keep doing this, no matter what other people think of me, no matter my size, no matter the fear or the physical pain.
