This is the lovely lamp on my husband's side of the bed.
At 1:30 this morning, due to a mishap that involved moving an extra pillow, this poor old lamp bit the dust.
The 'little miracle': When the lamp crashed and this piece landed right on my head, it was circle-down around my ear, with the sharp jagged bits up in the air.
I was half asleep, and didn't know what was happening.  I froze - afraid to move! - while Jeff turned on the light.  The lamp made such an impressive exploding sound when it hit that the dogs were long gone.  They high-tailed it immediately, which was a good thing, since shards of glass littered the floor and the bed covers.  Luckily everyone escaped injury.  
Life is full of little miracles!  
I am filled with gratitude - for whoever invented the vaccuum, certainly....but most especially for my guardian angel - whoever it may have been last night.  Nice job, flipping that piece of the lamp.  And protecting all of us.  Thank you!

Bedside Lamp:  RIP
You were a good lamp, and a great comfort, for many years.
