The worst things run through your head at times like that. You did a lovely job of retelling it.

If I had to get out and travel in it, I wouldn't like it. <br /><br />Lovely writing Karen.The Silver Age Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01135538968544231161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-90274375906729018612010-11-04T19:41:57.374-04:002010-11-04T19:41:57.374-04:00I'm glad that he made it home safely! The snow...I'm glad that he made it home safely! The snow is often lovely when one is inside with all the loved ones, warm and secure. But it is also so scary, every minute seems to drag out when one is separated from the loved ones. Being together is one of the most valuable things. It is terrifying when things are so unknown, and I think you captured that well.<br /><br />Once I remember coming home and my loved ones were out - I'd forgotten they had an appointment - and I honestly thought that they had been kidnapped - or worse. I called everywhere, every number, and no info or response. When they walked in a few hours later, I never felt such relief at being together.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-1964147963201187962010-11-04T16:31:36.652-04:002010-11-04T16:31:36.652-04:00I love winter, but hate driving in bad weather... ...I love winter, but hate driving in bad weather...

I was irritated and was about to go without it- was actually out the door, headed to my truck when my roommate called out to me that he was on the phone. Went back inside to listen to him tell me that he had been in a car accident.<br /><br />Now, anytime anyone is late, I worry instead of getting irritated.Shellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06811697675090627618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-63409745818640100962010-11-04T08:55:20.264-04:002010-11-04T08:55:20.264-04:00It is really scary driving in bad weather.
