4th of July war zone

     Honestly, I can do without all the fireworks.  They began before June. Yesterday they started in the afternoon and continued all night. For a city where it is illegal to set off fireworks we certainly did have a lot of big stuff going off.

     I pity the pets. I pity people like The Curmudgeon who go to bed early and had such a total disruption of their night.

     I might have been a jolly participant in the festivities if they hadn’t scared our rescue dog Lucy and given me one hell of headache. Yes, it was that much and that loud in our neighborhood. There was no getting away from them. I had to hold Lucy in my lap all night.

     I wish the police could enforce the law but with so many people setting them off it is impossible for them to do it.

     If I’m lucky my headache will leave before I wake up. If I can get to sleep.

     You all have a good one.

  1. Hi Peggy – I’m so with you on this one – the holiday is not about making a fr*ckng racket from late May through August, the cats are already highstrung and I like to get up early with a good nights sleep. Time to pass the red wine or whine! 🙂
