I just read a tweet quoting Robert Frost's poem, The Road Not Taken. I like to believe that I have taken many un-traveled roads in my life, but this morning, I decided against it.
I awoke to a very icy-coated landscape outside my bedroom window. I was a bit worried about the state of the sidewalks, so I chose to wear my Sperry Topsider duck shoes. Thank goodness!
I slid, literally slid, out the door of the apartment stairwell onto the sidewalk. I knew it would be quite an interesting walk to the pickup stop. I think I walked approximately 6 feet on the sidewalk before I realized it would be much easier to walk on the road, which had been salted quite well. I literally walked down the middle of the street because the sidewalk near the stop was extremely slippery.
It was a little awkward cause I think I may have been in the way of some drivers. Sorry, I'm not sorry.
Keep living your dream!
