I’m tired. How ’bout you? Stayed up late watching awesome fireworks then came home and was still amped up or something. Couldn’t fall asleep till after midnight! Think it had something to do with that nap I took yesterday afternoon? Probably.
Where I grew up you couldn’t light fireworks at home. They were banned from the entire county — because one wrong move and that misfired firework would turn into an epic wildfire. (I just used the word fire three times in one sentence) Up where I live currently, same deal. But down in the city where we watched fireworks last night, there are an endless stream of booths along the roads, hawking their fireworks.
When you think about it, it’s kind of nuts. And dangerous. And so much dang FUN.
I hope you had a fabulous 4th of July. If you’re off today then enjoy it. I need to write. I need to get back on track.
And oh my goodness my children are driving me nuts. We’re only about three weeks in on this summer deal. I hope I can survive it.

LOL about the kids. School holidays have just started here. It’s winter and it’s raining, of course!!
We still have fireworks here although each year there is talk of banning them. We have them for 5 Nov (Guy Fawks day).
