BIG White-Out/Black-Out

This is me, last night on the chair lift at Big White. A short time later, I had a wee accident that caused me to fall back fast and hard and bang my head. I was so out of it, even though my head was throbbing all over, I did one more run. On the last chair lift up though, I felt nauseous and emotionally flat--rather dazed and out of it. The accident was unavoidable someone else clipped me from behind and I went down hard. I didn't realize it at the time but I have a concussion. So we packed it in and headed back to the van. But the night was young...just as we finally exited the road to Big White, a white-out blizzard hit from out of no where. We couldn't see the road and the snow was coming at us like a swarm of locusts. So, in my weird concussion state, I was a mess, just praying we'd somehow manage to stay on that twisty, cliff lined highway and make it home to our girls in one piece.
We made it home, with the blizzard letting up at about Black Mountain.
Today I am a little off. I feel flat emotionally but also like crying all of the time for no reason. And my neck is very stiff from the fall. My head still aches somewhat.
Needless to say, after a night of rest, I think I may have to give up boarding. I can't hit my head that hard again. I have three little girls who need me. And that is the thing about boarding, you can't avoid falling back hard if someone clips you. Skiing is sooo much easier, much safer. Getting off lifts isn't ever an issue. I've fallen tons of times boarding, ended up black and blue, but this was the first concussion and I just don't like it much.
My darling girls--the three musketeers--are at "Hotel for Dogs" as I write this. Their first movie without a parent. They are so excited! Tabs had a birthday coupon and decided to treat her sisters. They are so adorable! Peter is picking them up from the theatre now.
So..it's onward to the Dalai Lama tonight. But I don't feel up to the highway driving alone. Not recovering from a concussion. I hope I can convince Peter to come along. I just don't feel like myself quite yet...weep....weep....
