Does anyone else have people think you're blind all the time?

Strangers say it to me because I don't do eye contact, I look down, and I seem spaced out like I'm not looking at anything.

I've heard this so many times it's embarrassing.

Who just says that to people?!

Being the lead of my department is exhausting. I'd still much rather be a utility worker or custodian.

Same.

I've noticed that I, as a lead, am a bit worse at getting things done than others - I need more time to prepare, more time to think.... a lot more time to deal with stress and emotions

And I feel guilty and bad when I make people follow my decisions, even if I'm right.

what about you?

What's on my mind?
Why am I still waiting for the President George II plus cables and other bits & pieces? DHL tracking says the package was loaded into the van and arrived at the delivery depot 11:00.
Yet here I sit, rigless.

Have you got it yet CF? I love mine. Would love to take it out mobile up the local hill if I get my drivers licence back in the future.

Basically did nothing all day but just be on YT, watched some stuff, and ate too many pancakes because I can't exactly eat any hard food yet.

Yep!

It arrived about an hour ago.

I'd had a rummage for a spare 12v PSU because the one I ordered was out of stock, to be delivered separately and hopefully arriving today.

For a while it was like Christmas - as I was opening the rig packaging someone from FedEx arrived with the PSU!
The timing couldn't have been better and that's damn fine service from Knights, I must say.

So I have everything needed, apart from a non-essential balun.
I've powered it up (with a dummy load) for a quick poke around and it all looks Ok, so now I have to SWR the aerial and explore the controls.

I'm within spitting distance of a major motorway, so that should be a useful source.
But I'll also have a look at going mobile, with the rig parked on the passenger seat and a magnetic whip on the roof - it will be interesting to see just how much it can pull in.

Rainy rain rain~

Road on my household's street ain't flooding much anymore after 7+ or so years of yearly floodings.

Mainly hitting the capital region this time.
This storm is at least 3 hrs far, about over a 100km radius from the capital.

You're not really all that annoying, just too hard on yourself.
