CFI-A Lesson 2 (continued, yet again)

My last entry talked about fate. Today, I got a double dose. First, when I went to bed last night, my sinuses were clogged and I could not breathe through my nose. When I woke this morning, things had not improved. Second, the weather once again became a factor during my schedule block of time. Here are the METARs:

I think I need some good kharma or something to get me past this lesson. Think happy thoughts.
