I heard it coming, firstly with the low rolling thunder and then the loud cracking thunder that followed the bright stark lightning bolts that broke free from the black clouds and slammed straight down to the ground!
But when I saw this photo in facebook ...

Not long after that, I very gingerly found my way outside to capture this ...
... right above our house! I can't tell you how afraid I was!
The storm lasted a long time and I was feeling terrified until I could hear the thunder finally fading into the distance.
So I survived my first big storm since the tornado in January. I think that takes me a step closer to healing my post traumatic stress.
I know I'll still be afraid when the next storm rolls in, but I'm sure that eventually, the fear will fade into insignificance, and I'll get through them without a second thought.
On a brighter and happier note ... THIS arrived in my email today, from Vegan Chickie.
I get to see her again next Monday :) *happy dance*
Nite all.
