Ice Sends A Cowboy
Tumblr media
I should’ve just stayed at the ranch instead of going out for drinks with Beth. Especially since the temperatures were dropping and most places were preparing for a cold night. So we could have just had drink back home. She told me she had a fight with Rip and couldn’t be around him for a few hours and she ended up getting taken home by Rip. I insisted on driving myself home since I had only two drinks so I was okay to drive. Picking up my phone in my right hand I dialed my boyfriend Ryan figuring he needed to know if he had to come get me or not. “Hey Ryan. I just thought I should call you and let you know I’m on my way home.” I explained resting one hand on the steering wheel.
“Y/n, it’s not safe out tonight. Why didn’t you letRip take you home?” He asked through the phone. I could hear the concern is his voice and it warms my heart. He is always worried about me even when it’s over do I want the last cookie. Because he’ll give it to me which causes the others in the bunkhouse to tease him about it. “Babe, I’m fine. Plus when Rip picked her up he had that look in his eyes. The one saying they might not make it home…because they’re probably sitting in the truck in the driveway back at their house already. If you know what I mean.” Ryan sighed back through the phone right as I felt the car swerve a little. Sitting my phone I didn’t get the chance to stop the truck from hitting a patch of ice and launching itself off the side of the road.
The truck does a flip but thankfully it landed upright in the end. Hitting my head on the steering wheel I groaned seeing some blood on my forehead in the review mirror. “Hang on sweetheart. I’m coming!” Ryan hollers through the phone as my vision blurs and I passed out on the steering wheel. The next time I struggled to open my eyes feeling someone carrying me bridal style. Lifting my head up I saw Ryan as he helped sit me in the passenger seat of the Yellowstone truck. “R-Ryan?” I croaked out watching him move hair out of my face with a weak smile seeing I am sort of okay. “I told you I’d come and get you darling. Let’s get you back to the ranch. It’s too cold to be out here alone.” Laying my head against his shoulder as we drove home I snuggled into his warmth already feeling safe.
Comments really appreciated ❤️

It’s not snowing now but the stuff out there is wet and heavy. The power lines should be okay but the roads are icy as hell. I had to go to the store for a must-have item, otherwise I woulda never have gone anywhere.

some winter driving tips from your Friendly Neighbourhood Canadian who has driven in temperatures below -40:
• if you don’t have winter tires and they’re available where you live, GO GET SOME ASAP. EVEN IF THEY’RE USED, so long as they’ve been driven for less than a couple of years. CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH
• practice threshold braking when on ice OR snow (lightly apply pressure to the brake pedal, then gently let go, lightly apply more, then let go, and so on until the car stops) - it’ll prevents the wheels from locking or slowing down TOO quickly and you losing control
• also practice threshold accelerating too (literally the same as threshold braking - gently apply pressure then release until it’s safe to apply more gradual pressure); most people wanna just push on the gas as normal when driving in the winter. This is not a good idea - your wheels will likely spin out and you’ll fishtail (even with winter tires), so practice accelerating gently. If some douche behind you honks, LET THEM. Better to be honked at than making an insurance claim
• if you hit a patch of ice while braking and your car is just NOT STOPPING, jam the car into neutral, gently go along with whatever direction your car is skidding (no i am not kidding) and threshold break!
putting the car in neutral will decrease the amount of power going to the wheels so they don’t spin as much and you’ll have a bit more control
• here’s why you wanna GENTLY go along with wherever your car is skidding: if you hard turn in any other direction or floor the brakes, you WILL spin out and either end up in the ditch or hitting another vehicle. As hard as it sounds, don’t panic - release your foot from the gas (do not immediately brake - ESPECIALLY ON A HIGHWAY), put the car in neutral if you can and allow yourself to momentarily drive in the direction the car is sliding first before braking or going in the other direction or whatever you have to do
• DO 👏🏽 NOT 👏🏽 SPEED 👏🏽 OR 👏🏽 TAILGATE 👏🏽 PEOPLE. Heck I’d even say proceed with caution if you wanna drive at THE maximum speed limit on a given road.
• When the roads are this dangerous, you need to swallow your pride and relinquish your right to go as fast as you want in the “fast lane” (or any lane), because a busy highway + icy roads + some ass who wants to drive up too close behind other vehicles in places where people are not used to these road conditions is recipe for a horrible crash
• Plan to go to wherever you need to go early enough (at LEAST 45 minutes ahead of schedule if it’s quite a ways away) so you’re not tempted to speed
I’m here if y’all need any other tips. Please be safe this Christmas and New Years!!

Yall I finished the snake head! 🐍
I’m going back to my room now because I wanted to finish the head, and then I was gonna keep going and do as much of the body as I can, but then my mom texted me and said, “no school today.”
So I’m going back to my room and coming downstairs at a more reasonable time to work on it. (It just turned 7:00 a.m, but I started at around 5:50 a.m ish.)
They canceled school today bc of icy roads

I didn't get to Adoration; the woman who has the hour before me covered. I didn't get to the barn; my friend fed everyone for me this morning. I'm going to get my truck warmed up in a bit (it's freaking 11 degrees outside), but if the road still hasn't been touched, I'm not getting to work by 7. It's slow enough my coworker who is house sitting should be able to cover... if I can wake her up.
I hate winter.

”Moonlight shines brightly
Laying bare an unseen path
Of dreams and hopes
That all had gone away
I've seen promise in the dawn
Released from the shadows
I bathe in time we never had”

"Car Cracks Up On Treacherous Road," Toronto Star. November 18, 1932. Page 2. ---- Ice on the road was responsible for the condition of this motor-car, which was operated on Bloor St. E., near Church St., early to-day by Clifford Anderson, Marjory Ave. It skidded in front of an east-bound Bloor car, and this is what happened. Anderson received a fractured jaw.

In an alternate universe we deal with icy roads by throwing down gunpowder and setting it alight.
Imagine watching your entire street get set on fire for 3 seconds and your mum just pops the kettle on like "oh they're a little earlier this morning"

Icy
I don't fear any weather,
I've coped with them all,
But concern can be healthy.
Now I learnt by falling,
By forgetting to be careful,
And deciding a solution.
Ice wasn't my teacher,
Nor the icy paths and roads,
Just the situations of learning.
Math is in classrooms and offices,
Cycling practicalities the outside,
And navigating icy paths there too.

Writing Practice – Describe an event or moment from your day: Driving to work on slippery roads
Driving to work on slippery roads: A freezing fog and drizzle has coated every surface in a glaze of ice. Everything in the muted early morning light was coated in a shimmer of ice as I made my way steadily along the slippery highway.  It made the world pretty and dangerous all at once. In the distance I spotted the telltale sight of the red glow of unmoving taillights and the flashing of the tow…
