You have every right to complain.

You get all stoked up to go and carve some turns and have to drop the plans. I had similar false starts earlier, but am finally getting out there. Monday was great, Sunday would have been better from what I've read. We'll get our days. . .here's how my plans worked out, but not without some strife.
I asked for Monday off from work on Friday and it was OK'd. By 4:00 Sunday I was wondering if school might be closed because it hadn't stopped snowing (24" in Schodack, NY). Or, what if the heat goes south and they can't open. Maybe a two hour school opening delay. By Sunday night I'm worried that email at work might go down and I'll be called in. McKenzie wakes up middle of night, says she doesn't feel good. I checked her temp in the morning- 98.6- whew. email is still working. Kids are well, waiting for the bus. I guess I can go skiing now. Whew!
It's the unexpected stuff we have no control over. For those of us with families, anything can happen.
