The First Spring Thunderstorm

Thunderstorms and I have a love-hate relationship. They give me such peace and anxiety,
 all at the same time. When there is a light thunderstorm it is so calming. I live in Colorado, so these are tornado months, and if you know me at all you know my biggest fears are natural disasters. So my brain go from A to Z, from "It's so nice out," to "We are going to die." Yes it is a bit dramatic. Tonight we had our first thunderstorm of the spring and summer seasons. It was calm and wonderful... until the hail came. I only freaked out a little. I know there has to be others out there who fear natural disasters like I do. I don't let it control my life; I still go on with my day, I just have an exit strategy wherever I go and I always feel the need to be prepared. What are your biggest fears? Almost everything I fear involves things that I cannot control, and I am pretty sure that is why I am afraid of them. I would not call myself a control freak; I just think I am a little quirky. On the other hand it is so nice to be done with snow for the season. I love snow and would live in it all year long, it is just hard when one day it is 70 degrees and the next there are two feet of snow on the ground... but that's what we get when we live in Colorado.

I hope everyone is having a nice week!
