Not a Good Night

Last night we had a really bad thunderstorm. It wasn't so much the thunder, but lots of rain and HAIL! I couldn't believe how much noise it made hitting all the windows and the roof. It lasted for about 20 minutes but our path alongside our garden turned into a river. There is a deep hole where the water just eroded away all the dirt and grass. Unfortunately, we found a puddle of water in the basement -not bad at all but it means Ron will have to angle the ground away from the foundation near Anna's room. We've been keeping a very close eye on the basement when it rains since the foundation and crawl space are new and we don't know how they'll do in a storm. After things settled down, we headed to bed and Chloe decided to start in. She cried for an hour before finally going to sleep. We took her out several times to no avail. She seemed to be in some pain and I don't know if it was her back or if her ten minute walks three times a day -which the vet recommended were too much. We ended up giving her a sedative and now she's sleeping peacefully. I took her out this morning and its like nothing ever happened. No pain or anything. I'm wondering if maybe she was anxious from the storm?
