Fireworks Still Going!

It is 10 PM on the 4th of July here....and I do know that is the day of celebration. However, our town allows it June 30th through July 4th. So...needless to say I am ready for them to be over. The neighbors like to shoot off a ton of them and it is really bad tonight. I can't imagine the pets that don't like the loud sounds. They don't think about little kids/babies who are trying to sleep now too. Ahh well...it should be over after midnight until new years.

We have been hearing booming and shaking for several weeks now. I am more than ready for it to end. Every time I try to sleep, I just start to drop off and it starts in again. I have the AC on, of course, because it's hot outside. Then I am running a box fan in the hallway to try to muffle the booms, and the TV is on. I can still hear them.

@MommyOfEli2013 Indeed, celebrate have fun but no need to be obnoxious about it. People always take things to far.

I'm in the forest where not allowed but hearing some go off somewhere. It's hard to say where since mountains echo. I'm ready to stop hearing them and seeing all the deaths/injury news.

Just because it is not allowed doesn't mean people aren't going to try to do it anyway unfortunately.

Saturday was the noisiest night. The close neighbors made our windows rattle. The 4th was much quieter.

That's very different than here - Saturday was not too bad. Sunday was pretty bad but the night of the 4th was horrendous
