Crashing Thunder Wow, we had some pretty good thunder boomers here last night and early this morning. The first one was around 10:30 pm, the next one at 3:30am and then another at around 6:15am.

The last one at 6:15 was right over the house, and the windows were rattling, and the thunder was so loud and constant that I couldn't even hear the fan going, not 5 feet away from my head!

Bruno got scared so first he just stuck his nose in my face like "Mummy, I'm scared". Then I sat up and patted the bed near my feet and he climbed up, then put his head in my lap, trying his best to be a lap dog. Every time the thunder crashed, he'd look up at me, and in the dark I couldn't see his face, but I kinda got the feeling he was saying "Mum, I'm glad you're here, I don't like that noise!"

Normally thunder storms scare the bejeebers out of me, but since we've got the dogs I am so busy calming them, that I don't have time to be scared myself.

We really need a bigger bed, poor George was on the floor scared and alone. She just shouldda got to me earlier I guess ;-)

The storm soon passed, and Bruno went back to sleeping on the floor. Right next to big sister George, to protect her of course. :-)  ¶ 10:24 AM
