[Gpdd] MISC: Peter's candle lighting

[Carol Riley]

I am the worst of the worst slaves!!! I haven't been on the digest for 2 weeks with everything that's been going on where I live and I completely FORGOT the candle lighting March 9th! I have been a member of the digest for years, always participated, and this year.....ugh!
No excuse but - there was a tornado in Nashville March 3rd, only 2 miles from where I live. Many people and businesses were affected, including people I work with and some of our stores. That completely was the first and foremost thing in my radar....well except for my boy Avalanche and hubby. Needless to say, some long hours, craziness, no power in some areas, etc....and I am a bad, bad, bad slave! No wonder Avalanche has been giving me the stink eye! 
I am now weathering the colleges in the area that are closing suddenly due to the coronavirus and dealing with hysterical parents and kids. 
I am sad to hear of Bailey's passing but happy Scottie has found his name. I do think of you all frequently, even when I don't get on and read the gpdd. I hope you are all well. 
Ashamedly, Carol and Avalanche (I am NOT ashamed mom, you goofed. not me. hmph!)"Oh mom really? You have totally embarrassed me in front of my friends!" he said while hiding his head under the hay.....
