I have an suspision that if you were dubious of your ability to fly in the wind, you might have been nervous and crashed/landed by accedent. My instuctor once told me that if you were nervous about flying, unless you are always nervous (in which case this won't help anything) it is better not to fly if you feel to nervous. You might end up making some BIG mistake.

All in all, I think you did the right thing.
