Gripe of the day:

People using their phones while driving. Especially when they have their kids in the car. Like are you kidding me?

Positive of the day:

Looks like it’ll be a beautiful day! Hoping to get the paddleboard out again (although my knee is still very bruised) or at the very least have a swim!

Leaf blowers.

Please get a big broom or rake instead.

I loathe them. The revving, the constant rumble, it grates on me to the point I might turn into a mindless murderer. We have a guy who uses it almost daily at work, and just lets it idle and...urgh.
