I'm feeling pretty good today. I ate a reasonable breakfast, checked my email, and then headed up to shower. I was fully prepared to brave the snowy conditions and go to work. Then, my husband saw me all dressed for work and said, "You're going in?" My employer is 20 miles southwest of my home, but I don't work at the office. I visit clients in their homes. My current client lives in a care facility and there is no alternate route from my home. The route is all hills and has not been plowed. I took a look at my car and saw the condition of the roads. That made me call in to see what my employer suggested. They admitted that we had received a lot more snow near my home and my client's, so suggested that I NOT go in. That relieved my mind.
I bundled up and headed outside to enjoy all the neighborhood kids sledding, giggling, and just generally enjoying their long weekend. I went for a brisk walk, talked to neighbors along the way, and ended my outing with a quick ride on someone sled down the hill by my house.
I was a little sad that it wasn't safe for me to drive to my daughter's house. I wanted to see my sweet 2-1/2 year old grandson have his first experience in the snow. I feel a little better now, since my daughter called me and told me all about it. The other grandma got to be there since she only lives 2 blocks from my daughter, but I don't begrudge her the fun. As long as my grandson got to have a wonderful experience, that's all that really matters.
Sometimes when I am forced to stay inside due to weather conditions, I snack and just generally eat more than usual. Thankfully, with my first weigh-in coming up and the "12 lbs. by Easter" challenge that I accepted, I have the motivation to NOT just fall into snacking.

Yes, but you had a walk and the cold helps you burn more calories, so good for you. Above all, you played it safe. The other night, I have an evening event to attend. It was pitch dark, the parking was four blocks away and there were no sidewalks. Granted, there is no snow or ice here, but still, I told myself no, and I drove home, taking no chances. If I fell with my bad ankles, I'd never forgive myself. I'm on the Easter challenge, too. We can do it!!!
