I hate having to call something to cancel that won’t let me do it online. Changed from Concast Xfinity internet to Verizon 5G home internet. Had to call Xfinity. At least I was able to schedule a call back for my lunch hour. They kept bouncing me around so I hung up. They called back and I told them to not do that again. 5 minutes later I was free.
Went to a number of stores and could not find valances for kitchen. Ended up ordering 5 different from JC Penney’s flash sale. Hate ordering so many but cannot get or look at in store. I just hope one works. I want this done!
Needed to upload a document for a retirement "thing". Scanned the document, marked it as needed, was in one of their "recommended" browsers and proceeded to download it. 30 minutes later - nothing. Tried again... and again. Finally changed browsers - done in less than 2 minutes! Grrr.... at least it is done.

Wind. It seems to have gotten worse the last couple of years. I don’t ever remember there being wind advisory like we now get them.
More bad storms today. It’s 5:30 and I can’t sleep. Needed to do a load of clothes and run the DW so I got out of bed and did it now so I’m not rushing to do it after church.
I agree! Was just talking to a friend about this.Originally Posted by Tradd

I agree about the wind. We certainly have more very windy days than we used to. It's wearing on the nerves, the constant sound of it. I remember reading about prairie dwellers who went insane from cabin fever, but the wind as well!
Prairie madness was for real. Living here on the plains next to the mountains, the wind is unnerving especially at night. After experiencing wind events that have blown over trees and fences, we really appreciate days with only mild breezes or none at all.
I was out walking one windy day and ran into a woman who claimed to like the wind. Turns out she was a windsurf instructor. Seem like there are some people who like the snow and cold or the hit summers, but not many people would say they like wind.
I can see where out on the plains where it's dry and the skies are cloudless for days on end how the wind and dust during the dust bowl must have pushed a few over the edge.

I still remember the novel I read 40+ years ago called The Wind about a woman driven mad by the wind when she lived in rural, desolate Texas.
I like the breeze here in Texas. It makes it much cooler. Just asked DH and his response … “It is pleasant!”
