The Big Ski happened Tuesday, at Alyeska Ski Resort in Girdwood. The original plan was for the girls to spend a couple of hours in group lessons while K took a few runs down the mountain. There weren't enough instructors, so K ended up skiing with the girls on the bunny hill until R and I got back from running errands in Anchorage. T was too tired to try taking the lift up & skiing down with her dad. It was a beautiful day, and the girls had fun, though LittleK reached near-maximum whine power by the time we left.
Maybe one day I'll actually get to ski.
It's Spring Break here in the Anchorage suburbs, and the weather has warmed up accordingly. There was enough warmth to melt the ice sheet in the driveway and create huge pools of runoff in the street. Today the snow fell slowly, and vertically, unlike Laramie snowfalls. It was so peaceful.
I've been feeling pretty healthy lately, because I've finally been able to sleep in a real bed (not the couch) with room-air that's smoke-free. I did have to go to the clinic today and left with orders to drink more fluids and down lots of cranberry juice... I have been given the official command to stop drinking Pepsi.
We shall see.
