New Years Eve

I was invited to 2 parties for this New Years Eve. I was only interested in going to one of these parties. Daisy would have to stay home from the party, since there would be too many "crazy" people and too much noise to be fun for her. This would also be the first New Years Eve in 2 years with fireworks going off left and right, so I decided to spend New Years Eve with Daisy at my parents. 
My parents had invited a former co-worker of theirs, whom I hadn't seen in almost 20 years. So catching up and chatting with them was actually quite fun. For the most part of the evening Daisy was doing just fine. She slept to most of the fireworks that were going off periodically throughout the entire evening. At midnight when all the fireworks were going off at the same time, well that was a little too much for her. First she hid right under my chair. Since that didn't seem to do the trick, she sat right next to me looking for protection. Of course I paid attention to her and it calmed her right down. She still wasn't happy about the fireworks and luckily the worst part was over after about 20 minutes. After that Daisy just chilled out for the rest of the evening. I had to wait till about 2 am to take Daisy for her last walk of the day, since she doesn't do her business with fireworks going off. At that time it was already fairly quiet and everything went off without any problems. So all in all a fairly easy New Years Eve and I'm glad, that I chose to stay home with Daisy!!
