In a War Zone

Last night, I woke around 12:00.  Fireworks were going off everywhere.   It sounded as if someone on the opposite side of our block was shooting them towards our house.  It sounded as if they were exploding right outside the bedroom window.  I'm surprised Elana did not wake up.  She did wake up around 4:00.  This morning, instead of pleasantly talking, she screamed.  After a couple of minutes, she fell back asleep.  Happy New Year everyone!
