#SimpleSunday #StellarSkiByHirscher
Monday 9th, 5.26, -4.8dg, forecasting a snowy on off day today and then long range shows sunshine... this could be a week on skis for me but it is school holidays...Rats. Forecasting on the mountain a dusting of new snow. Freeze-thaw conditions (max 4°C on Tue afternoon, min -11°C on Sun night). The snow ploughs have made the second pass on the road outside the house so I am picking there is a little work waiting for me at daylight. Yesterday dawned with big fat fluffies falling out of the sky and that carried on all day in varying degrees on intensity. I made two clearing sessions just to stay on top of it, even though it was not so heavy. My Dutch couple departed 10.30 and then it was upstairs to do the turnaround. The flat was immaculate which is always a treat. The incoming from Holland are a family of four until they mailed and asked if the other son could join them... 5 in my upstairs ? I said it would be a mattress on the floor, they jumped at the chance...it makes me wonder if my charges in high season are too low. My little house will fairly groan under the strain for eight nights. Heavens, there must be snow outside, that is the fourth pass on the road in 30 mins, Yesterday was spent between the Dachboden, the laundry and then on my trusty ringside chair to watch the recorded Mens DH from Vail and then live DH and SL combined. Watched the first leg live and recorded the slalom as it was on too late for this bird. Should not have scanned FB this morning, as I have seen the results. No matter, it must have been a stellar run from Hirscher to win the gold after his first run placing of 30th in the field... looking forward to watching the recorded race. Today I have a 7.30 physio call and then it is a day free from all responsibility, if there is such a thing. In fact with schools on holiday this week, I am free all week. I have cancelled Tuesday conversation and will just have my Wednesday and Fridays girls in so it is very definitely Moochie time this week, and it will be a very well behaved Moochie that I can guarantee. Happy Monday.
