A poor choice
By Linda Pfeilsticker | Wabasha, Minn

I love the holidays. There are so many social gatherings that we can hardly fit them all in. It is important to remember to be safe. It is so easy to make a mistake. I know because that is what I did. I drove after drinking at a party. I got a DUI. I know better.

I accept total responsibility for my poor choice. I am grateful that no one was hurt and that no damage was done. I realize I disappointed many people: my family, friends, colleagues, supporters, students and myself. I hope that you will forgive me and will allow me the opportunity to earn back your trust and respect.
I will use this experience to become a better person. I have always worked very hard to be a person of honor and integrity, and I will continue to work to be the person of honor and integrity you know.

Safely enjoy the holidays and new year.
