right choice

i was supposed to teach in wentworth this morning - an hour and a half away - when i woke up and looked out at 5 a.m., the blizzard was in full swing

now, i have driven in everything - and have confidence in good tires and driving slow - but this morning i just couldnt convince myself it was safe to head out - so i crawled back under the covers until 6 - no better - 7 - worse - 8 - forget it

i was feeling pretty bad because i had committed to work this morning ( a notoriously difficult morning for finding instructors)and didnt want to wimp out because of a little snow

but then i checked the ski wentworth website and ... they had shut down due to the highwinds - a guilt free day at home to enjoy the blizzard - and enjoy it i did - shovelling, walks, sledding, rosey cheeks and coffees and cocas by the fire
