I arrived home, and 10 minutes later the lights went out! We've been experiencing very stormy weather on O'ahu... I love it! "Weather drama" is the only drama I will tolerate these days. I'm too old for the other kinds...
The lights were out until the wee hours of Thursday morning. Frank and I had a glass of wine surrounded by candles (L'chayim!), plotted what we were going to buy the relatives for the holidays when we travel back to Boston and New Hampshire.
Blessings and "Chag Sameach" (Happy Holiday) to you all!
I got the chanukiah (the chanuka menorah/candelabra) at a cute little place in Jerusalem when I last visited Israel in 1999. Cute, huh?
