I
had been vacuuming the hearth when I accidentally pickup a live
ember. I turned around to see the vacuum cleaner ablaze. Thinking
quickly now, I turned the vacuum off and took it outside. Then
I rushed back inside to make sure the house wasn't on fire.
There
was minimal damage to the carpet and a chair but all in all, it
is good that God watches over fools. Later the same day, my
daughter-in-law and I were going shopping. As we drove in
from the country, we passed an area where there had been a grass
fire. I stated someone must have thrown a lit cigarette out
of a passing car. To which my daughter-in-law replied, "or
a vacuum cleaner."
