Ski day Thursday

Nothing is fool proof to a sufficiently talented fool.
Good Morning Thursday...27th, 6.25, +0.7dg and there is a crystal clear sky outside... this girl is on skis today. Boot bag on heat, sms's sent, shovel a quick breakfast and gone. Yesterday the weather God's where so kind, it was an almost clear sunny day but VB cold so the snow pack will have kept it's nice winter condition. Spring can wait, today I am back in winter. Yesterday was another of those revolving door kinda days. Say goodbye to one just before the next arrives. Did my new adult tuition go well.. she is much better than she thinks, it is a confidence thing, so next Monday, weather permitting, we will be out and about doing the shops and cafes so she can get used to using her English out loud. Time will tell. I had one of my littles in tears yesterday over spelling.. nothing I said, but his little buddy was getting them all correct and drawing a smiley face against each correct one, and he had only one correct.. ahh the competitive streak at such a young age. He was so upset that she was clever enough to get them right when he couldn't.. hard lesson learnt, and I guarantee next Wednesday's spelling test will produce different results. My Wednesday girls were very orderly.. first Wednesday without a bottle on the table and I did not go up to the village with them to have a drink.. it was cold and I had the fire going before they had arrived. Stand clear for next Wednesday as it is the first Wed of the month and it has been decreed that it will be drinking and nibbling with conversation. I have said I will do a selection of NZ nibbles. They are in charge of the liquids. Today is my day and it is organised. But no bar crawl on the way home. I have promised myself. One of my Mothers said to me yesterday please be careful because if you damage yourself it is not so easy to teach the children !!! I am not foolproof, but I hope sufficient skill set to avoid trouble, on skis at least.
