Another example, from a University in this state. A student during the middle of the COVID lockdown and classess all online, away from family and not able to physically gather w. her friends, contacted University Health Services for counseling for depression -- there was a three month wait list. Edit: the largest mental health facility in this state is the Joseph Harp Correctional Center in Lexington

We're going to get hit this weekend, Sunday night into Monday morning. Dry light fluffy snow -- 10" to 15" of it here, more in the NW part of the state. Old record for days below freezing was 13 and we'll probably break it. Don't remember when that was but the last 11-day record was in 1983, so before that.
-
Hope you can get it started soon.
-
Our highs the next several days will be 40F to 45F below normal.
-
16F here this morning. University isn't opening up until noon, which is silly as the roads aren't as bad as yesterday morning -- and will be worse tomorrow morning when more freezing precip comes in. Wind chill this weekend could hit -28F ❄️
-
We're not leaving the house. Several of the main roads here in town are showing as bad - don't want to think what the side roads are like.
-
Campus closed today because of freezing rain / sleet. Today (and the next 9 or 10) could be below freezing, which would be the longest stretch since the 1980's
-
Long and aggravating day today, made worse by a high pain level.
-
I'm obviously not awake yet this morning as what my mind read originally was, "snowing like chickens"
-
LOVE this one since it came out. The expressions of the lady at the piano are wonderful - she looks like she's having such fun.
-
Ouch -- not had one but know people who have; know those things really hurt. Get better soon.

His thyroid is on overdrive. Going to schedule a scan to make sure it's uniformly swollen (good) and not asymmetric (bad), then go from there. At least it's something generally low key and relatively easy to fix.
-
SP's metabolic screening from his physical last week came back; the Dr wants him to come in this afternoon to discuss the results. This is NOT a good thing -- if there weren't a problem they would have just told him over the phone things were fine. Has me worried. We'll find out this afternoon what's up.

It might not cure you, but by the 3rd or 4th one you won't care.
-
Feel better soon
-
Sounds pretty!
-
Managed to upgrade my computer memory from 8 Gb to 16 Gb without frying anything! So ready for a three-day weekend.
-
Burn blistered yesterday morning but is looking much better now. Wind gusts of 50+ mph today, and could be worse tomorrow. Oklahoma -- "where the wind comes sweeping down the plains" isn't just poetic metaphor.
-
We have a truck that comes in w. a power shredder that can chew through large binder clips.
-
Enjoying the story so far
-
Next three days are going to be "fun" -- SP has a couple of Dr appointments; things should be fine but there is always that lingering doubt. Public Service Announcement: when blending still-hot potato soup, don't lift the immersion blender (or hand mixer, depending on what you want to call it) too high, or the napalm-like gloop will splash on you hand and leave you with an inch long blister.

That says so much.

Rain / Snow / Ice moving in today -- we'll be ringing in the new year w. yucky weather.

Missing a Charlie Boone story for a 3rd Onward Door sounds like a good trade.
-
Wonderful story. Always fun to read about Charlie and his friends -- but write at a pace that is good for you. They wouldn't be as thrilling if you rushed putting together a story just to meet an arbitrary deadline. They would loose their skwish. ❄️
