Candle Calamity

I like having candles in my room, it is quite pleasant having the glow of a candle near by with the soft vanilla scent floating by while reading or doing other various activities. Just don't leave the candle unattended, which is inadvertently and precisely what I did. In some cases a fire may be the cause of leaving the candle all alone, or a nice waxy mess to clean up. The good news is that the latter happened to me.



What is shown in the image only reveals part of the mess; what continued from the overflow dripped off and down onto the floor splattering everywhere. I have to admit, the candle wax did make a really cool flowing design.




In other news, it snowed for the first time here yesterday! Sadly I didn't take any pictures and now all the snow has melted. This morning there was some nice white frost on the ground, making the grass sparkle and shimmer like polished diamonds; and I didn't get a picture of that either. But I did go out for breakfast with Dustin, which was special treat, we were able to catch up on a few things. For things around here can get quite busy which does not always allow for us to have time to talk for longer than a few moments.

Well I better blow out my candles before I leave, or I will have double the mess.
