My in-laws()loved to travel and every winter would visit different countries.While they were
gone,some friends moved into their house so it would not be left empty.This year it was decided that I would
be the one to move into their house.Fortunately,I was allowed to retum home on the weekend.
I tried to keep myself busy.Each day I walked down to the bottom of the driveway to collect the mail,
sewed curtains for four large windows,filled the bird feeders,cleaned the house from top to bottom.watched
an occasional TV show and spent a disappointing couple of hours trying to get on the dial-up Intemet.
Chatting with friends and family on the phone helped comfort me,but these conversations and the simple
chores didn't totally fill my time.Basically I did whatever I could to keep my mind off the fact that I was there
alone.
On Friday I would head back to the city to meet up with friends and spend time with my husband and our
family.On Monday,the car filled with groceries.I'd make the drive back to my in-laws'house.
During my third week in the country the temperature dropped and a massive snowstorm set in.The
driveway was filled quickly with wet,heavy snow.I hadn't seen that much snow since I was a child.and
lovely as it was.I feared that I wouldn't be able to get out.It was very cold and every day the snow kept
falling.On Thursday night it started to rain.With a sinking heart I knew I wouldn't be going home that
weekend.
Disappointed and feeling very low,I worried about not having enough food.What would I do if the
power went out?What if I fell ill?
Friday morning I awoke to a winter wonderland.The trees were weighed down with ice and the
surrounding countryside was blanketed in a deep hill of unbroken white.I felt very helpless.
Paragraph 1:
Suddenly I heard a noise and I quickly ran across the room to the window.
Paragraph 2:
As I stood there watching,I realized that I might have a slim chance that I would get out.
