*I turned 45. :) Happy belated birthday to ThomCat and the other DUers that share my birthday! :hi:
*On Thursday a week ago at about 11:30 PM, an EF-2 tornado touched down only a couple of miles from where I live. My husband had just finished two MRIs and I was driving back from the doctor to our house. As we passed the airport at 10:45 PM, we almost got blown off the road by wind gusts. The tornado went through that area less than 45 minutes after we were there. Nothing happened at my house, but one of my husband's friends sustained damage to his business, and there are a decent number of families who had to find other places to live.
At 2:10 AM that Friday, an EF-2 tornado touched down in my mother's back yard two hours away and knocked down most of the trees in her back yard. Her deck was severely damaged, but she and her house are OK. Three of her neighbors sustained major damage to their cars and homes. The tornado touched down there and hopscotched to other areas in a six-mile path, causing all kinds of havoc. I left work at lunch on Friday and went down to her house to help clean up. I was there until Sunday evening, and I was really freaking tired when I got back.
*My father-in-law suffered an episode of dementia. He's been in the beginning stages of Alzheimer's for a couple of years now, but it's getting worse.
*Work has gotten even busier. I didn't even think that was possible.
Hello to everyone I haven't talked to in a while. :hi:
