stopping for a sunrise

On the way to work on Wednesday, 
I was blessed with this stunning sunrise.

I asked myself...
Do I keep driving
or
stop to enjoy?

Slip-Sliding in the bomb-cyclone

What a Week!

What a Winter!
As I sat in my classroom, I had no idea just how bad it was getting out there.  We did not close early, so I thought it shouldn't be too bad driving home... Not!

It was actually one of the worst commutes I have ever had.  
I was slip-sliding on straight roads and was dreading all the windy hills.  On one of the hills, my car had no traction.  
It was so bad that I actually drove in reverse all the way back
down the hill and decided to take a much longer route home.  
The back roads are the last to be plowed, so I stayed on state highways as much as possible.
My 15 minute commute turned into an hour.
Knowing I had a long way to go, I pulled over to compose myself, said a prayer, and called my husband.  
I don't think I went faster than 20mph for most of the way home.
Pulling in the garage felt like a 
m i r a c l e.

Stay warm and cozy dear friends!
