Sprained Ankle and Golden Years

As I mentioned in my previous post I’ve sprained my ankle. It’s a bit better now but still pretty purple. I’m glad I can walk on it comfortably again. It was driving me nuts. I’ve never injured my feet or ankles before.

I was especially worried because this weekend is the Coburg Golden Years festival that I’m volunteering at. I will be working in the beer garden so if I wasn’t able to stand I would have had to back out at the last minute.

I’m pretty excited about it. I’ve been searching and applying for jobs all week and so far no luck. It will be nice to be finally doing something other than just thinking about doing something.

 

Coburg, Oregon – Golden Years

Heck yes! I will be volunteering both nights at the my fair towns Golden Years celebration. Doing what? Beer Garden. I don’t want my bartending skills to get rusty while I look for work. Should be fun.

While there are a few parts that are rather long winded. The Golden Years festival is a local fundraiser and all of the money we gain stays in the community. Not Eugene, or any of the other surrounding area’s, just our small town of 1000 people. Yes, I will take pictures.

Longest Week Ever!

Good god, this has been a loooong week. This week I’ve:

  1. Driven to and from Redding, California. That’s 640 mi. +/-
  2. Broke down in Redding. Oh fun!
  3. Started my Ketosis diet. Think induction phase of Atkins.
  4. Started crocheting again. Hopefully I will have enough goodies by winter to sell at a craft show.
  5. Worked on my car and fixed ABSOLUTELY nothing. That was a disappointing day.

So there you have it. That’s my week in a nut shell. The drive to Redding was absolutely miserable. I’m never leaving the Willamette Valley again by driving, fuck that, fuck getting stuck anywhere, let alone the surface of the sun.

I’ve lost 4 lbs so far on Keto. I realize I should only weigh myself once a week on the same day but I couldn’t help it. I NEEDED TO SEE RESULTS. And I did.  I’m happy.

Onto Crocheting! I’m making hoodie/scarf things.. or at least I’m working on one at the moment. This one (instagram) is for.. UofO or Oakland A’s, or Green Bay Packers.. You see, I figure there’s a large market so if I push them as team colors instead of just “Green and Yellow!” I might have some luck making some $$$.

It finally cooled off down into the lovely mid-high 70’s here so I’m cleaning and having a fantastic day.
