I slept very poorly last night and today I have done mostly nothing.
I did go to Dollar General for a few things, including hot dog buns cause hubby wanted a coney island dog. I made a side dish of cheesy hash browns. We had homemade yogurt with frozen mixed berries, sweetened with maple syrup. Yummy.
Just snacking this evening.
I am sleepy right now and so I should go on to bed.
I have had a hard time getting in again today.
There has only been a little bit of noise from the fireworks here today. Sounded like some kind of a cannon. There will probably b a lot more near dark.
We just snacked this evening and ate a cream cheese spread I made that had dried fruit in it.
Tomorrow is church. I hope you have a good evening.

I'm surprised you found a place that was still doing their fireworks show! Almost all of our fireworks shows here in Florida were cancelled due to COVID.

@andriaperry: I can't resist saying that you need to go look in the mirror. Don't you know that you are the fireworks?

I thought for sure I was gong to have a sleepless night, because about 8 million people were outside shooting off fireworks all night long last night. But I must have been super tired, because I fell asleep almost immediately when my head hit the pillow, and I slept like a baby all night long.

@GardenGerty Kinda late, but not the worst. If your area was anything like my area, the fireworks pretty much went on all night long.

Even with the cancellation of fireworks displays in our area, there were many had private displays. I heard them all around us up until about 11:00 last night. The air was filled with the smell of smoke. Had to shut my window for a while until the smoke cleared.

There were many places that had them still here. July 5 a church in the country had a display in the evening.

I heard some occasional loud booms. After dark someone north of here was setting off a lot of aerials that were pretty to see.

We could watch all the neighbors out the front window. It did not seem to bother the catts.

We really did not have too many either. But some were close to my house.
