Winter Shopping






Big, fluffy flakes fell blotting out the landscape and slowing down traffic.  A deep breath and a reminder to relax loosened her grip on the steering wheel as Clara pressed on the accelerator with a light force.  Her car moved forward joining the rest of the last minute shoppers as they inched toward their destination.


An empty parking spot near the front door was worth braving the storm.  She glanced at the weather app on her cell phone.  The snow would stop in less than an hour.  By the time she finished shopping it would be clear to drive home.
