When I found out one of the new OC curlers was #Norwegian I knew the fancy pantalones had to come out for just a little bit, but I learned my lesson from the Germany pants on Saturday league so I only put on the pants afterwards lol. Rich is married to Gina - one of the Asian women skips during the first week. I hope Gina skips more games. I’m all about #diversity #inclusion #representation & getting more Asian women to embrace skipping.

What Josh Sutor referred to after Saturday’s game as “German luck” struck again. My superstitious side would say maybe I need a different Germany jacket and we need to keep playing yellow stones; Andrew, my Oskar, thinks it’s all about NOT having hammer & rushing the other team He even bled today & the ritualistic sacrifice didn’t work Hopefully bringing in a ringer sub (Clyde) for the 6/2 game will bring on the W. As much as I want him to sweep all my stones, maybe he should call line& Andrew can sweep - he’s used to it lol.

Bill, who taught the skips clinic before league, was totally shocked I was wearing a combo of Norway & Germany tonight. He was already like “WHOA WHAT’S GOING ON HERE?!?” when he saw me w/ GERMANY on my chest, I unzipped my jacket to reveal the Norway jersey underneath. He’s used to seeing me all decked out in blue & yellow. I still had the bracelets & earrings, but I’ve been cheering on Germany at World Juniors so gotta represent - Ate loves her Adings & totally believe they can win it all.

I don’t think I have enough characters left in my IG captions to write out all the stereotypes and memes about this pic We finally got somewhat of a team pic together (we didn’t do it last week). Once again we still haven’t bought drinks, but we’re clearly capable or hanging in there the first half - we were 2-2 after the half vs a team (family) that plays 2 league games a week for 10 years so to hang in there was awesome. I wish I had video of an awesome Plan B shot I nailed to score 1 in the 4th end. I don’t even know what to call the shot because it hit one of the corners rolled across the house, hit another one and then rolled shot buried behind a wall of red (we were yellow). We will keep working on improving.

LOL my usual broomstacking MO is to do a show and tell about the bracelets I normally wear and the pictures that speak volumes of their special significance #IYKYK Chances are everyone and their mom will know that story by the end of this league hahaha. At least I’ll always have something to talk about during broomstacking and at bonspiels

OMFG I am sweeping SO much as a skip! I still want to lose another 20-30 lbs of pandemic weight and I’m hoping I still have this sweeping power after I lose more weight - it’s technique and not just weight But I’m also hoping my sweepers will continue to improve their sweeping technique because skipper has a shoulder MRI coming… and physical therapy on the horizon again. And I just had hip x-rays today after my MSK specialist appointment. My Swedes *cough Crippa and Nik* and their injuries are contagious LOL. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, unless it’s eye groin JK.

I feel so bad because I keep forgetting to post this, but better #lategram than never right? Thank you to my second Maureen for the end of league present! We already played the first game of summer league and are already off to a much better start than last league. Maybe one day we’ll be good enough to have official uniforms sponsored by @fireballwhisky Something on fire Likely with a design. The bag smelled SO good!!! Woohoo #Fireballers #cinnamon #saturday #weekend
