Friday - March 21st. I'm hung over from pain meds and interrupted sleep so I feel foggy today. This will be my fifth attempt at a journal and to minimize the rambling I'm just going to do bullet points.
*Business showcase yesterday was interesting. I won a Kindle Fire HDX from my bank. It was the ONLY booth I signed up for the 'free drawing'. Wild.
*Sprained my ankle - self diagnosed via interweb search level 2. Yes, ice, heat, elevation and wrapping with my yoga stretch belt as I don't have an Ace bandage. Using Cutty's cane to steady ambulation.
*Cool compliment from the "snooty art party lady" yesterday (the class I abandoned last year because of her constant gossiping) - she'd heard I'd been painting at home and really turning out interesting pieces and wants to see them.
*Second cool compliment: my 'church' came up on a possible 'tour site list for a downtown event' - apparently one of the very minimal handful of people I've allowed to go all the way thru my shop, house and into my back yard was at the meeting. For security there's no way I'll get on that list but it was nice to hear.
*Bucket list check off: petted and hand fed a carrot to a real live Camel. Too cool.
*Can't be sure if I made the 'three nights in a row' of no Midnight Munching because I did not have dinner but on the single limp I could manage into the kitchen I grabbed some cottage cheese with berries and the bag with all the 'free goodies' given away from the booths at the Showcase and that included some trail mix, a granola bar, and two cookies. Despite the pain meds I didn't get to sleep until about 3am so I snacked on those while I binged on "Orange is the New Black" on Netflix. Judges?
That's about it. Shortest journal ever for me, hmm? Thanks for stopping to visit me and I hope you're having a wonderful Friday wherever you are today.

OMG I had only a #1 sprain 2 years ago. Please go to doc. I highly recommend the $40 ankle sock thingy that ties/and velcros. It is called the Shock Doctor Ultra Wrap Lace Ankle Support. I don't think I could have survived without it. My doc said that once you sprain it is VERY EASY to sprain again and he suggested to stay off for 48 hours then use the Shock doc support for a long time (can't remember how long). He said to walk very carefully so as not to sprain again. Listen to me - with all this advice. Has it started turning purple yet?

Wow, quite the swings in this journal! From winning a Kindle (whoohoo!), to spraining your ankle (ouch). I hope your injury heals quickly...and hey look on the bright side; it will give you more time before you hit up the pantry/fridge, so no midnight snacking monster sightings! Have a lovely weekend.

Orange is the New Black is one of my favorite Netflix series. Can't wait for the next season to come out. The Following is also pretty good if you're into crime/thrillers.

Awww I hate you hurt your ankle..Love you got to feed a camel..they have the prettiest eyes...Would love to see one up close like that...What a hoot you won the Kindle...that's awesome...Feel better soon...:O)

Did you ride the camel to the business showcase, then fall off and sprain your ankle because of the excitement of winning the kindle? Then perhaps the snooty art woman gave you a ride home and complimented your art? Just trying to tie these events together lol. Im not covinced that your choices constitute being labeled a midnight munch fest seeing as how you didnt have dinner. We will give that a pass and see how you do tonight :-) Hope your ankle feels better real soon. Easy on the pain meds, alice :-)

Some good luck mixed with bad luck... I guess you can read your Kindle while your ankle heals? How did you come across a camel? Was it part of the background story leading up to your ankle mishap? LOL. Feel better!
