Your little quote at the end of your post made me smile. It's like the one that says 'Remember, to the outside world, we are a nice, normal family'. That one makes me laugh every time too!

I burn one candle at night and it's at the edge of my island so I can't miss it when I go to bed. I want to invest in some flameless candles. Timers would be nice, too. <br /><br />I'm glad you are feeling better. I go nuts if I can't be outdoors, preferably in my backyard with the dogs. Winter drives me crazy sometimes. I love it at first but by February the bitter cold and snow makes me want to weep. Still, it's all I've ever know and I can be a stubborn Midwesterner!<br /><br />What a feast you made. We have dinner at 7:00 p.m. Is that late or early to you? Couldn't tell from your words. Hubby is unpredictable as far as when he comes home from work. Also, as I sleep a little later than most, I can't fathom food until a few hours later. Lunch gets pushed back til 4:00 sometimes. Yes, like your poster...I'm just me!<br /><br />Jane Blondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-39921602114936639872016-09-17T09:13:40.270-05:002016-09-17T09:13:40.270-05:00So sorry about your toe.
