jake16 - 2016-12-29 11:12 PM Doing the same as you. We have a few lovely neighbors that do fireworks practically all year long,even in the blizzards.so I will be home making sure Jack and Romeo are safely tucked in and my puppies are under the blankets:)
I think we may have the same neighbors!! Christmas, New Years, Memorial Day, Labor Day, 4th of July, Birthdays. Heck one of them set off fireworks when his Mother died. We even have a year around wholesale outlet a mile up the road, where they practice and advertise by setting off BIG fireworks.
My horses and dogs became immune years ago.
Two of my pups hate fireworks.And I have gotten to the point that I hate them too.And those shooting targets that blow up and sound like a horrible truck crash or bomb going off. |

We moved a couple of months ago from a neighborhood where they set fireworks off all the time (even though fireworks were illegal in ny) so looking forward to seeing what this neighborhood does for holidays. |

Thats funny... so will I, I always hope that it rains on New Years Eve and a big thunderstorm rolls in right befor midnight to keep all the ding dongs from setting off their firewoks and shooting their darn guns, guns are my main gripe out here, we have plenty of our own guns but we dont use them for fireworks like some of these nut cases out here do.  |

Yep thats the plan getting everybody taken care of as in horses and dogs, poor dogs hates the fireworks so they get locked up in the shop and then getting in that horizonal position.. Hope your not in to much pain, heard that kind of surgery can be a bit painful. |

This was a piece of cake. I can't do anything in a NORMAL manor. Had to have surgery twice this week. Nothing went wrong, just the way they had to do it. Thank you. I am pretty good at following Dr orders. Already shooting fireworks but someone will probably blow their hand off before midnight. |

No fireworks either out here yet, but dumba**'s shotting their guns and had a ricochet come threw while I was putting up horses, I knew where it came from and I was plenty pi**, so I called the sheriff and my husband went and had a chat with the people..I am so not looking forward for tonight.. |

Location: CTX | Ugh, only 8.24pm and I already had to stay outside for an hour trying to keep the horses calm. My heeler ducked under the bench in the mudroom and doesn't want to come out. All because our idiot neighbors started early.... They seemed to have stopped for now, but it's going to be a loooong night....
Soooo looking forward to move to a bigger place so we don't have anybody nearby... |

| blccwgl55 - 2016-12-30 8:59 AM Since I don't have horses right now, just a dog, and live in town I don't have to worry about the fireworks too much! I got invited to go a few places an hour away to three hours away but I've drove a lot for the holidays and am just going to stay in town. I don't usually buy clothes too often but treated myself to a cute long sleeve cocktail dress for $15 and cute heels for $7 from Gabes, so I'm excited just to get dressed up and just go to a local restaurant and then bar here with a friend of two! I'll add a picture of my bargain finds

Will the fireworks are going off, but they are in the distance, so thats kinda good, but boy when they go off it sounds like a cannon, they make fireworks so much louder now adays..The land is real rolley out here so it really echo's when the fireworks go off, I go outside about every 45 mins to go check on my horses and then at midnight the dam guns will start going off again.. Be so glad when this night is over with..I'm such a party pooper, lol.. |
