Shocking Revelation.

In a hurry to finish cleaning this house before I go on vacation, I was outside cleaning mini blinds. I have them hung on the outside of the garage door so that I can spray them with the hose and scrub with a small brush. Well I was interrupted by a thunderstorm right in the middle of scrubbing one. So I retreated into the garage and started on another small project until the rain subsided. When it did I continued with the scrub down. Only now there was a lot more lightning and it was pretty close. They always say not to play in the water during a lighting storm, but what do "they" know. I was crouched down listening to pandora on my phone with headphones, the running hose a few feet away, and a light sprinkle of rain. Then BAM, right behind the house about 100 yards from me, the charge hit my left foot and out my right hand touching the garage door. Although not a direct hit, it still made my entire body ache and the headache that I had go away. So today's lesson, "don't play with the hose during a lightning storm." It sucks.
