PTSD sucks. I have my ear plugs in, trying to ride out the explosions outside. Anyone else in a similar situation, maybe neurodivergent?

    I use to have that as teen after a “firework accident”. It fade year after year, now it don’t bother me anymore.

    Hard to tell fireworks from gunfire around here, I have no desire to be clipped by an errant bullet. Also I enjoy feeling rested more than seeing fireworks for the 538th time in my life.

    I’m staying with the in-laws. We’ve got the dogs in the house. Amazingly none of them care about fireworks.

    We do have a toddler who had her night sleep interrupted by big bada-booms half the night. I was hoping to acclimatise her before her bedtime, but there were none to be seen then.
