Snowed in. Blizzards. Cancelled school and work. As a counselor in private practice these words translate to one thing for me: lost income. (And yes I realize I am committing a counseling sin to focus on money for a moment- but really – doesn’t it go through your head how much money you are losing when you have “leave-without –pay” or a forced vacation day at your job- or a day of lost fees from a private practice? After all we are human too- not always the completely selfless and totally giving stereotype that we succumb to ourselves at times.)
