This is AMAZING! I absolutely adore your Wonder Woman/Girl Power bling, and totally bow to your courage and compassion in not only jumping off a perfectly good building (you know, like asking people who go skydiving why they'd jump out of a perfectly good plane...LOL), but in spreading ostomy awareness and helping Miss Gabby with the zip line.
To be honest, I opened the video on YouTube so I could "like" it, but only got about ten seconds in before I chickened out. I can even comprehend pushing through my fear to actually do a descent like this. Well done!
And yes, @cailliyork is my eldest - some day I hope to get our other two here on Steemit. 😊
Oh, and as for the most exciting thing this week? Hubby & I heard hawks calling outside, and I managed to get a short, partial video of one of the mating pair "buzzing" us! It's probably not good enough quality to post, but the experience was awesome!

I always told people it was because I can and also because it's a fact that more people die in the plane than jumping out of it. But I don't think that takes into account the quantity that actually fly over jump out of planes lol...
Haha if you only got a few seconds you will have missed my puppet moves on fast-forward lol... it's actually quite hilarious. lol.
That is super cool about the hawks, I love wildlife but they are so hard to capture a good shot when they move all the time lol. Thank you for stopping by and your lovely comments. I was having a rather shitty moment and you made me smile. :)
Okay, that's a very good point... on both counts... did I mention we live under the flight path of a local airport. 😮 😉 😜
OMG, fast-forward can look amazing (ly hysterical!). I may have to take a few deep breaths and check it out again, just for the giggles.
Yeah, we're wicked lucky that where we live (besides all the planes flying overhead, and to be fair, we're far enough away from the airport that they're usually pretty high up there) has a ton of wildlife to stalk... I mean, photograph. I get enough chances that every now and then, one turns out fairly decent.
And you're very welcome - glad I could make your shitty moment a bit better (and amazingly enough, before my first cuppa kicked in - LOL).
Congratulations!! You did it!! I had to shut the video off because it was making me a little nauseous haha I'm so glad you and Gabby were featured on the local News there too...so cool that you both did the zipline also! I'm sure it is something neither of you will ever forget. And thankfully Peter was there to film it and to be the level-headed voice of reason to get you off that ledge haha
Thanks for the shout-out, but I was honored to be a little part of your courage to raise funds for such an important cause. You are awesome!!
Thanks Lynn! I did it and I survived. I understand I was a bit nauseous too, I am pretty sure that my eyes were shut for some of the looks down, I only remember seeing it on the video not in real life lol, sensory overload.
That's so cool that nothing can stop you and you did a very courageous thing! I'm in love with adrenaline but never really got enough courage to try zippling :D
Respect and keep on rocking! :)
Zip lining/flying foxes are a lot of fun and I highly recommend finding time to do it. If your ever in Penang, Malaysia. They have the most awesome high ropes adventure park called Escape thay has zip lines from one adventure to another as well as an assisted bungee and high flying arobatic stuff too. We went back to Penang, just to go there again.
Wow!! You are an inspiration! I'm afraid I wouldn't have done nearly as well...and my pants may have ended up a little wet. LOL! Can't wait to see what you do next.
haha, all I can say is lucky I am an ostomate and couldn't poop myself out of fear lol. So glad it's done, not sure what the next adventure will be, I have a son coming in a few months so probably nothing so death-defying lol.
The whole thing was set up by a chatity company. They organised everything. It happens once a year. There were about 1000 of us that did it over three days.
am proud of you, how you overcome the stigma of having having an ostomy bag, Now proud, happy and ready to help others overcome that stigma. Keep it up

You did it!!!! I am so happy you posted the pics. That looked crazy.
I did!!! Terrified but I did it lol.
The point is, no matter how terrified you were, you did it. You didn't let that stop you and that's what makes you, you :)
💜💜💜 thank you beautiful lady!

haha or out of body experience...but kind of backwards :)
Wow! You're at it again. I have learnt to buckle my seat belt when reading your posts, lol.
Haha not all of them are that bad lol. Thanks for stopping by to check out a more extreme one. Lol..

Oh, man! You are brave! Just reading this made me shaky & Anxious!
Haha, I can understand that lol. Thanks for checking it out anyway lol. Are you related to @traciyork?e
Wow, you managed to do it! Out of curiosity, how do you get permission to abseil off someone's building?
The whole thing was set up by a chatity company. They organised everything. It happens once a year. There were about 1000 of us that did it over three days.
hahaha exactly although some were less willing to dive straight in than others lol.
Congratulations. You are way braver than I am. I would never have had the guts to do this. Looks like you truly had an amazing time.
It was fun albeit terrifying at the same time. I was just super glad it was over and I didnt break myself. Lol.
Thanks a lot @insideoutlet for sharing that
Thanks @bmotives. I appreciate you taking time to read my post. Did you get a chance to watch the video.?
Thank you!
Great initiative !
Thanks.
