      It’s raining horizontally out west. The wind is something else too

      Copped it here too. It was wild. It would go quiet for a sec, then a big gust of turbo wind would come and it accelerated them to about the speed of a bullet. One hit me on the neck. I thought it was hail or something, it fucking hurt!

        So many bins were tipped over while I was coming home today. Looks like half of them had spilt their rubbish everywhere and still had rubbish bags inside. Tbf if I was a Garbo, I wouldn’t be picking rubbish bins up in this weather either, but bin time on the street I drove down was this morning, so they’re gonna have to deal with full bins for another week!

        My bin night is Thursday night/Friday morning, hoping things settle down by then…

      More of a spray here (we got the heavy earlier) fortunately just as I dropped the papou home. And fortunately over by the time I picked up Sammi. Can’t say the same for the wind, much to her chagrin.

      I left work just before it started to pour.

      Couple of branches on the road in my way home.

      The winds are going to be around till the end of the weekend sadly.

      Also we have a guest in house massage service at work today.

      I had a quick 10 minute back and should massage. God I could use another.
