I have been periodically looking out the window today and getting more stoked each time I do. You see, it hasn’t stopped snowing since early this morning, the flow has fluctuated for sure but it has not ceased to drop white joy from the sky. I’m getting anxious to spend more time outside than I do in my bed, and trust me, my bed is a wondrous pillow filled, down comforter covered location.
I’ve spoken with the doctors I work for and given them a winter schedule of time I can work. 11 days in February. 8 days in March. They were less than excited but agreed not to fire me. I’ve secured a season’s pass at my favorite Little Cottonwood Canyon resort, Alta. And had a celebratory cup of hot chocolate.
So many things are running though my mind about the season, which is now upon us.
Snowbird was even bold enough to put on their website they would be open on Friday, Nov. 7. I have pulled out the list of metaphorical jumps I want to stomp with confidence this year that was written after the most inspiring women’s conference at the end of September. I’m excited to get moving and keep the mental fire throughout the season. Shouldn’t be difficult; every morning I wake up in my bed I take a look at the photograph of literal fire framed on my night stand and get ready for the day.
As I finish writing, it’s still snowing, lightly, the sun has extended its rays through the clouds and I can do nothing but keep the smile and the stoke going for the '08-09 season. SEND IT! — Erin Bragg
