I always carry a book with me when we're out and about so I'm prepared for a 'Donald's stop. I order the Southwestern Salad w. Grilled Chicken!

To wrap up this fabulously crazy post I'll end with a fabulously crazy idea. Yesterday I was putting candles in the windows like I do every year. But this year I wasn't a worried mess about the candles "accidentally" falling off the windowsills and the light bulbs shattering on the hard wood floor.
19 tweets and twitters:
Dear Rae,
On Wednesday of this week, I had one of those silicone light bulbs and it caught on fire..YES! Thank goodness I was right there...do not leave those on when you go out. I still use them but now I will not leave those on.
-sandy toes
p.s. yesterday, sounded dreamy...pj's till 1..yes!
i had a hard time picking 8 tv shows, too.
and i too have a facebook- but i don't use it much- my cousins talked me into it as a way to keep contact. it's kinda cool.
sounds like a fab - relaxing- thanksgiving weekend with your family
We put those candles in the windows as well. Falling off and the bulb breaking has already happened. But, we think one of the cats jumped up there and knocked it off.
Your list is great. Oh, I could definitely name 8 TV shows. HGTV has too many cute shows.
Love your favorites! Panera's rocks!
Did you like Twilight? I saw it yesterday too!
Hi Rae~
I love your lists! That is a fun tag! :) I also love the look of those light bulbs, and have never heard of Silicone ones! Maybe I'll have to try those out! :) I hope you have a wonderful time at the movie today! :)
I'm SO copying this! I'm trying to get some posts written to auto-post while I'm gone next week...this is perfect!
LOVED YOUR LIST!
loved your list and your award! congrats!
Decorating for Christmas, lazy mornings in PJS... love it.
Question...I see these candles in every window of my neighbors house and wondered if they ment something. Maybe it is something really obvious so please forgive me!!
I too am going to use those this year. We are scaling WAY back on the Christmas decorating but I will definitely ALWAYS do the candles in my windows.
Oh...and this is an answer to ...for all eternity on the candles. It harkens back to the age when families would put in a real candle in their window to welcome weary strangers. I have also been told that it signifies that a family has a loved one away and waiting for their safe return.
Ditto on #8 for the wish list. :-)
awww i loved your crazy eights!!
awww i loved your crazy eights!!
Great post! I realy enjoyed reading it. We don't normally put candles in our windows. However, we've talked about doing it this year. We'll see. This is all happening so very fast now. I am so overwhelmed with us dragging everything out of the attic already. So again....we'll see. I feel that things are totally not in order around here. Wait! It's not in order, duh? It's called decorating right? Okay..I'm rambling on someone else space. Sorry!
Have a great evening!
FUN to read more about you! Congrats on award... that award button is adorable!
ENJOY!
