Winter wonderland

It's very beautiful here, freezing fog has coated all the tree branches with ice. A real winter wonderland. Yesterday had horrendous journey to school, woke up late, J forgotten to print out homework (after 6 days off!!!), had to go back for his coat, drive still very icy, seriously bad traffic jams, thick fog...but when I got home after 2 hours I just thought 'Hey, I don't live in a caravan. Yippee!!! Let's keep things in perspective.'
There are several short cuts to J's school which involve going down country lanes. In this weather they are very icy. As everyone else is avoiding them too the main roads get jammed. This morning I decided to risk the icy route, drove very carefully, saw incredibly beautiful sunrise over snowy fields & managed to get him there in good time which was good as I was going out to breakfast with (old) house group. We went to a restaurant in local town & had bacon, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes & toast, yum.
