Canadian Rejuvenation


Nothing like that annual trip to build up wonderful, new expectations and challenges in this life. Nothing like returning to work after 2 weeks off to crush that spirit into a pulp that you can't make beer with. Yesterday I allowed myself ONE DAY of post-trip
depression. That's all I am allowed. Now, after four straight days of challenging work and one day of sitting on my ass, I will renew my quest in becoming a stellar self-taught brewer. Got to start somewhere. Since I am still feeling hog-tied to work, I need to re-structure my away from work life. I have a plan to re-arrange my apartment to allow for a brew tree. After I attempt to run a marathon this Sunday, I will come home and pour myself a tall, cold, Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ale (more on that in a future post) and plan baby steps for my overhaul.
