Default RE: wind sucks......

That's normal flying weather here in Oklahoma. All of my students regularly fly in winds 10-20, it's just part of life here. If/when you learn to fly in wind then you'll find yourself grounded a lot less. I know that seems like it's impossible to do, but give it a try. When you first try make sure that the wind is straight down the runway. Make a normal approach but keep some power on and fly the plane to the ground. You'll do fine.
