walking cast blues

sleeping in a walking cast is not as easy or comfortable as it sounds. First, you have to figure out a way not to put all that salt, dirt, mud, etc on the thing into your bed! I’m using a pillowcase. Then, you have to get it in there before you pull up the nice and cozy, but rather sticky flannel sheets. Then you have wake completely every time you want to change positions.

After night 2 I feel like I got a little better sleep, but there was still a point where I just took the damn thing off for a couple hours.

This is going to be a loooooong 6 weeks.

Welcome to the new (and hopefully permanent) home of This Journey. It's good to have people walking along, especially during the bumpy parts. I can be contacted at not.fainthearted at gmail dot com. Or leave a comment!
