I woke up, *post interrupted by heading to basement* I wrote the later after returning. :laugh2:
I got up at 4:30, did some more laundry, straitened up a bit. Around 5:30 I thought about going for a walk. It was cool and it seemed sun was coming out. Common sense said, 'no.' I walk partially through parks, not such a smart idea that early. So I read and drank more coffee.
Around 6:45 I figured what the heck, people will be out. Sun was peeking through some non-ominous clouds. So off I go, get about 1.5 miles and notice a wall of black heading towards me. Mind you, I've been working up to running a bit, bad knees, old age tell me, "Take it easy."
I turned around but the wall was coming at me. I ran part of the way, with the knee screaming. Hit my block and only had 2 drops fall on me. ;)
Went to weather and found this a severe thunderstorm warning-it actually said would be in Wheaton 7:20, they were off by about 5 minutes, 7:15. It was a bad one, but now it's just down to rain.
