I was disappointed that the weather ruined my plans to attend the local Avon representatives holiday party last night.
The snow stopped falling at 4 PM. I finished removing the snow from my driveway and sidewalks at 5:30 PM. The town removed the snow off the street at 7 PM; black ice was scheduled to begin forming soon at 7:30 PM. The party started at 6:30 PM.
I was surprised that the party was not postponed considering the weather and road conditions, but at 4:30 PM, an e-mail arrived informing me that the party was still on. I imagine that the headcount at the party was lower than usual… at least by one.
I had a cute outfit picked out and ready to wear. I hope I will have another opportunity to wear it out real soon now.
By the way, the photo above was taken exactly one year ago when I was getting ready to go to last year’s Avon rep holiday party.

I am sorry that you had to pull the plug on the Avon party. I was on the road for work yesterday and the trip to twice as long as it should have.
ReplyDeleteWhile my wife is generally not a fan of me going out while dressed if I were to venture out with bad driving conditions she would be a double wreck. The emergence of black ice in our neck of the woods last night was quite real. I nearly fell leaving work when I slipped on some black ice.

Smart, Stana! I'm glad the snow was cleared but black ice is always a danger.
ReplyDeleteI fervently hope you took the opportunity to wear your new outfit at home. The photo of you dressed for last year's Avon party is a very nice one. You looked fabulous then and I'm sure you do today! Thanks for everything, Stana.
ps; hope your wife and you are doing well.
