Great things about being blind. Not being awakened by lightning

We had major thunder and lightning storms last night.  They went on for a couple of hours at least.  I love listening to the rain when I am lying in bed.  It is so nice to know that you don't have to be out in it.  The rain poured down.  It makes a clicking sound on the metal railings of our balcony, a tapping deeper sound on the window.  A pounding sound on the pavement.  Then the thunder came.  It was very loud and shook the house and there was bright lightning I was told but the lightning didn't keep me awake.  The thunder woke me up fully once but my guide dog slept peacefully on.  I love hearing a thunder storm when I don't have to travel in it.
