Hey y'all, what's going on today?

Laundry day and get work done day. Also set up an order to go pick up at Walmart this afternoon. It's looking to be a productive day at least.

Hopefully you can get some sleep. Have you tried pain killer or a warm compress on your face?

Pretty sure that was around Waco (we call it Wacko in our neck of the woods thanks to the Branch Davidians).
Those storms were only about 90 miles from us and blew our way. For some strange (and honestly good) reason, the last several years severe storms can approach the "Holy City" and the severe part seems to split and go around and we just get rain and thunder/lightning. It happens so regularly that it's something that many here comment on that follow the weather. Some think it's because the city is on an iron ore "hill" that sits higher than some of the surrounding country side. We do get quite a few ground strikes with lightning. Just in my 1 block there have been (in different storms) about 8 trees destroyed over the last 2 years.
It's been several years since we got hail any larger than a pinto bean, and those were soft stones.

I feel sorry for them, it seems like grapefruit-sized hail would bust every window in sight. A lot of times there are storms in the forecast for us and we never see a drop of rain.

@Cory I don't blame you for avoiding Mountain Dew, caffeine certainly wouldn't help your anxiety at all. My spouse has anxiety and they don't drink soda that often because of it.

Yeah, I've had anxiety problems since I was a teen. I used to drink these energy tea drinks and I didn't realize till later on how they were affecting my anxiety levels.

Doing alright! Hate that it’s a Monday, but getting ready for work though.

Good afternoon! Got back from my holiday last night, not sure if I'm enjoying the cold weather or not.
Back to work tomorrow already, with no leave booked until August now for my birthday. It's going to be a long 3 months!

Well at least you had a bit time off! Is it still so stressful at work at the moment?

I'm sure I'll find out tomorrow. 😭 I did turn my work phone on for a quick peek to see what I may be going back to. Nearly 300 WhatsApp messages and just over 100 emails, but on first glance it doesn't look like anything disastrous has happened, so hopefully we will be all good.

I'd go back from where you came.

@Strawberry I hope you had a great holiday! Where did you go? Hopefully work won’t be too rough, but I understand coming back to a lot of emails is always a bit overwhelming occasionally. Hope the next 3 months fly for you then!

I was in Lanzarote in the Canary Islands. The weather was good and the cocktails were flowing, that's the main thing.
