Subject: RE: BS: Sitting At The Kitchen Table
It was a weird 4th for me, mainly because I had to deal with a barking/shaking dog reacting to constant booming fireworks. The neighbors for blocks around me really went at the noisemakers this year, starting on Sunday. Didn't sleep much Monday night or last night because my dog was barking every time a boom went off. I put a soft muzzle on him last night, but that didn't completely stop it. The fairgrounds is only about a mile from my house, and that is where the main city fireworks were held. Windows rattling, dog barking, went on til about midnight or later.
Sometimes I have a pot luck party at my house for the 4th, but this year I spent it alone. Worked some on paperwork for my job and generally felt exhausted from sleep deprivation.
