Getting your Bum out of bed on a cold & lazy Sunday....

All week I was so excited to have Saturday and Sunday off. Working over at the Recreation Dept., it is pretty unusual this time of year to have those two days off. Plans to go skiing on Saturday fell through, so Sunday it was! While watching the weather channel the night before, they talked about sub-zero temps and an arctic blast. This was making my decision about getting up early pretty tough. This seems to be the story whenever my days off fall this winter....very funny mother nature!!! When I had talked to a couple of friends on Saturday, We left it that we would catch up in the morning...keep in mind I've been car-less the past week, so making plans has been a little tougher than usual! I go to bed Saturday night and set the alarm for 7:30 hoping to get up there early, try and beat some crowds and be back in time for my boyfriend to take the car to his job! Wellll....I let the dog out first thing and came back inside an absolute icicle...to my relief, about 20 minutes later...Rach and Jeremy called and said they were headed up around 10:30 if i wanted a ride...YESSS! It warmed up a tad and we were on our way out! Believe it or not, True Grit sticks out in my mind after all the runs we took...I hit no ice and seemed to find some real nice snow off the skiers right, which made the crazy morning and fighting the desire to be lazy on a Sunday morning all worth it!! While on the lift, this was said, "Even if we only get a few runs in, it's a much better day than a day with no skiing at all." You make the best of what you have, get in some good runs and laugh with good friends! Get out there and ski...at least for a little bit....no matter what the weather may be :)
