Bad Fire = Candle that wasn't blown out
Bad to Worse = Smoke Detector going off @2 AM
( I am so grateful to God that our detector did it's job AND man are those things loud!)
Reality Check = A bright glow coming from the bathroom and a really bad smell. Me abruptly wide awake. Then me smothering the counter top with a towel and the fire was out.
All that = A very bad night's sleep. I kept having visions of a fire starting in the wall and the Gaylord Fire Department having a hard time getting here quickly due to all the snow, but then, that's my worrisome mind in action for ya.
Morning = A lingering reminder of destruction. One ruined towel & counter top.
*So, let this be your safety note re: candles:
Put glass dishes under them and blow them out!
AND Smoke Detectors Save Lives
