Nightjar Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Overcast in Blighty. We're supposed to have thunder storms today and tomorrow. They've been mad storms lately with lightening laser beams surging through the house. Not the 'gentle' storms I remember in my childhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sober4life Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 When I got back in my car today after it was serviced it said it was 100 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sober4life Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 We got about an inch and a half of rain here. A town close to here got 4 inches of rain in an hour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sober4life Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 It might rain all day today but then again it might not rain at all. Quotes like that get you on tv every day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shijima Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 In a heat wave where I reside the rest of this week, so not a really great and safe idea weather to be outdoors or with no air conditioning. It's sunny out with some clouds here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sober4life Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 I wonder if this is the place for me. How many times has a tornado just missed here and when is it not going to miss? Maybe it's a red flag a sign a mile high get out of here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crewneck Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 The weather was not in my favour. The moment I had to step out my house to get to work, it started to rain and thunder super hard. I was going to take the bus but I didn't want to risk being drenched all shift so I decided to take an Uber. Shortly after I got to work it stop raining and the sun came out. Really annoying for the broke... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sober4life Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 It's supposed to rain for 4 days. The cows don't even act like they care out there. They act the same no matter what the weather is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sober4life Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 It's awful out there today. It feels like I'm back in Texas for a summer day. It's so hot you can't stand to be out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is triggering my anxiety. I'll just add it too the list 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make you worry that every storm is going to wipe us out this time for sure and they constantly make you worry about deer ticks.

It is nothing but a drumbeat of negativity, aimed at keeping viewers in a perpetual state of anxiety. Turn it off, go outside, help a neighbor. As we say in Puerto Rico, "Los buenos somos más."

One of the storms knocked down one of the neighbors trees and I saw them outside and I said don't worry about it I'll put it on my burn pile and it's what I did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like when I still was drinking I developed a crush on someone at every store I used to buy alcohol at. Funny how I forgot all about them when I got sober. The news is no different. I get so sick of my brain. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sober4life Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) The cows make me laugh. You would think they would run for the barn when this crazy storm hit. Nope they ran down the hill toward the open area putting their heads up in the air. They're hot. They actually enjoy this storm.

sober4life Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 That storm yesterday I was like the cows. I was out there watching. It was one of those storms that my mind said you can't miss this! I was watching the trees in my front yard. Middle down they were straight up and down. Middle up they were sideways. A tree got uprooted and took out the entire front porch of the house across the street from my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monicott17 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Humidity is gone finally after a brutal, uncomfortable week! Low 70’s and very pleasant today. Nice to have the window open with a breeze flowing in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
