Holy crow, the snow.
So, Friday, the weather forecast was for 3-6 inches of snow, and instead we received something that looks like 14 inches. So Saturday morning involved much more shoveling than I had first anticipated. Somehow, it all got done, and it was sunny besides, so it was actually very rewarding.
Sunday, I curled like utter crap for the first four ends or so. Disappointing. Also, my teammates weren’t, shall we say, the heavy sweeping variety. So if I threw light, they could not quite carry the stone as far as my Wednesday teammates can. Double bleh. Frustration was further compounded when, in the 5th or 7th end, one of my sweepers decided that my stone was heavy and wasn’t going to follow it down the ice. This unfortunately meant that she stopped walking to watch the stone, while I was sliding on the ice behind her. The resulting collision of our feet as I frantically tried to steer out of her way caused me to lose my balance and I fell rather hard on my left hip. Triple bleh.
But on the plus side, killing zombies with friends and family was really good.
