She never used to be afraid of storms.Â* I kept telling her, it's just
noisy weather.Â* Poor girl.

Tonight all is calm.Â* She's snoozing on the sofa.

They like lulling us into a sense of knowing what to expect.Â* Then they

Of course. But she seemed seriously afraid of the noisy weather. I
don't think she wa pulling a trick. I think she was actually scared.

Fortunately the storm blew through and last night was quiet. All day
today has been sunny and quiet.
