Sitting in the sun at Ski Ward watching ski lessons. They need a magic carpet, toomuch time being spent on learning the handle tow. There is hardly any skiing happening. I think I'll suck it up and go to Wachusett next year for lessons.

Prepping the kitchen to be repainted, and replacing the kitchen base board radiator covers.

Soaking in the hot tub after skiing the bumps and glades at Sunapee. Trashed the edges on the 88's again. Had too sharpen them for tomorrow. Going to Sunapee again. Typing in the iTouch.

Just milling about stewing in my indecision.

Any of you guys ever decide not to ski on a day that you have no reason not to? I love the sport and for some reason, even though I had plans to hit Sugarloaf tomorrow, I am deciding last minute not to go. Didn't pack my gear or anything. What the hell is wrong with me? For some reason, I am in the mood to do absolutely nothing tomorrow. Well, I will have to hit the gym, but other than that not a damn thing.

I used to. Having a season pass helps for me and I'll also go on marginal days now more also.

Yeah, I have a pass also. It just feels strange...no real reason not to go. I think I might have overdone it in the past week and just need decompress time.

Resting up for the drive home later today. Almost 4 hours of basically ski on via the singles lane cycles of bumps on Jaws/Plummet/Freefall/Olympic and repeat at Mount Snow until legs totally shot, has me needing a little rest before the drive. Plus, the clouds ahead of the storm blew in over the top 1/4 of the mountain and after the last day and a half of phenomenal weather, I didn't really feel like flat light, in the cloud skiing for another few runs ;)

Decompressing after a rough drive home from VT this afternoon. From Mount Snow on down to roughly Springfield, MA it was between 28 and 30 with light drizzle :eek: Treated roads - OK untreated roads - sketchy at best - problem is you really couldn't deliniate which raods were and weren't treated!

Loved that lots of people left SR early. The place was empty most of the day; but especially after 1 pm. We skied until 3:45. The 2-hour drive home east/west from ME to NH on country roads was uneventful.

(You know how it is in Northern NE when you drive east/west. "You cahn't get theah from heah.")

Back to work listening to rain fall today. Yucch.

It's not my favorite thing, but I have to get it done early for financial aid for school. Ended up doing the FAFSA last night after all...wasn't as tedious as I recalled.

Right now, catching up on email before getting ready for school.
