This time of year makes me stabby

People have started blowing off fireworks, and it makes me crazy. I know I have to suck it up because of the 4th, but do we really need to start the holiday 6 day early?! I'll be so mad if one of the girls wakes up.

  • My idiot neighbors have been lighting them for 3 days now.....they wait til about 11pm to do it though!

    I would be livid, especially with a toddler in the house. Ella is harder to put back to bed then Kate is. I seriously cross my fingers hoping that she doesn't wake up.

  • We have neighbors who have been lighting them for the last week or so...It makes me crazy!!! I am petrified of the fire danger and overall safety hazard!  Nothing I can do about it though.  I cringe every time I hear them!

    I really want to call the Village Police, but the babe doesn't wake up and neither does my oldest so I let it go.  Hope your girl's stay asleep!

  • Our whole state is basically under a burn ban (and no city fireworks for the 4th of July) because of the drought we've been having.  So -- hopefully I should hear no fireworks, or stupid fire crackers.

  • Are fireworks illegal in any of your states? They are here (New York), so that kind of adds to the annoyance factor. I usually don't care when people do it, but days before the actual holiday is a little much.

    They use to be.  2 years ago they made them legal.

  • Yeah, people around here have been shooting them off (hehe....giggled as I typed that) since late May.  There were illegal but the law was recently changed.  Yay.

  • I was just thinking this today...well it started yesterday. My stupid neighbors let their kids shoot fireworks.all.freekin.day. Not only does it startle the bejezzus out of me because  I think it's gunshots...It freaks L and the cats out. I've been tempted to walk across the street and ask if they know they are illegal and they are a serious fire hazard because we all live so close together. Speaking of...more just went off. Gah.

  • It's illegal in my city, and even more serious because we've had no rain and are under a burn ban. I will so be calling the non-emergent 311 line if I hear any.
