“Our bodies have five senses: touch, smell, taste, sight, hearing. But not to be overlooked are the senses of our souls: intuition, peace, foresight, trust, empathy.
Good Morning... Thurs 30th, 5.59, +1.6dg. The weather reports for today are different on almost every site and it is too dark out for an out my window job.. it will be a wait and see but generally cloudy and a little showery down here in the village and they say snow on the mountains later and over night. Yesterday had a real Brrr factor to it all day. As I walked up to the lift at 8.30am I was watching the wind lift the snow off the ridges so made the decision to ski only the front faces. The snow guns were in full operation on all pistes as it was so cold, not really much fun skiing through blasting snow without windscreen wipers!! Combine that with a good selection of death cookies on certain parts and it tends to slow you down a tad!! The run down to the village was not open when I was ready to ski home... it has not been operational for a while now but the cover looks to be building again, so I lifted down, boots off, trolley packed and home for 11.30am. Perfect. Littles tuition sorted ... I had to clap my hands and raise my voice yesterday.. Ohhh, but it did get their attention... partially my fault as we were doing name the body parts on the blackboard and it got a little out of control. Conversation was just a giggle with information thrown in at various moments. Then it was time to socialise.. a visit was a nice little diversion, and one I have missed. My guest went out for the evening so once again the house was mine. Today is a me day.. what to do I ask ? Well there is a shed load of rubbish to cart up to the re-cycler and I have promised myself for months to sort all the S and D in the laundry cupboards. It was suggested an early morning ski but am thinking the light will be too flat and the Föhn wind may well be the master up on the slopes today. Yesterday the decision was made to take the trees offered to me that the Gemeinde were cutting from the roadside in front of a friends house. Next week I have to go to Bludenz, hire a truck to shift the 1 meter lengths of tree trunk to my back garden in preparation for cutting splitting and stacking. Jeez it only feels like yesterday I was doing the last jolly lot!! I have plenty to do to keep out of mischief today. Best laid plans and all.....
