I am going!
It doesn't look like I'll have a job to go to instead so WTF.
I like trains and can't think of a better place to be with a camera or two.
I think I'll go back and forth between Union Station and the engine house across the street from OMSI. Easy to do on the Yellow/Orange line.
Maybe catch OPR at the MAX diamonds (<-- Train talk. Makes me feel ejumicated).

Yes, I still exist.
I quit Lowe's as I indicated that I might. I left in September. I've been unemployed since.
My health has not been great. I am having drug reaction issues for the first time in my life. I was pretty sick until I quit one drug and without it there are other new issues to fight. My feet and ankles are swelling up to the point that it is on the verge of painful. I'm turning into an old lady before my time! AAAAuhg!
My rent is covered so far by a VASH voucher and I get SNAP so I am surviving but it can get tight. There are plenty of food banks if the SNAP runs out before it renews.
I keep meaning to go get some pictures and/or video of the Oregon Pacific Railroad line nearby Many Portlanders don't even know about it but they may now that it crosses the new MAX Orange line at a pair of diamonds right at the railroad museum. I'd love to get a vid of the OPR waiting at the crossing for the MAX.
​All for now

It has been a year and a half since I went to work at Lowe's Home improvement. I spent a year as Commercial Loader helping customers load lumber and related product at the lumber loading zone. I loved it! Stayed at it longer than I should have. It lasted until I hurt my rotator cuff and ended up with tennis elbow along with it. I spent the last few months on "Light Duty" which primarily consists of sitting at the entrance greeting customers coming in and asking people not to exit there. 
It amazes my how many lives I have apparently ruined by asking people to walk around to the other side of the customer service counter to use the exit door. All the cursing and name calling!
I finally got cleared to go back to loading when my diabetic neuropathy struck a dirty blow. I was on the last week of greeter duty when I developed a horrible wound on the bottom of my left foot.
I can't take the verbal and, yes, physical abuse as greeter much longer now that I have no end in sight.
My doctor has arranged for me to pick up a scooter that I kneel on and kick along with my better foot.
Thank goodness for my veteran status. I have spent so much time at the V.A. Women's Clinic and in the Portland V.A. Hospital in the last few months I would never have been able to pay the bills.
