Last Night of Chanukah

I just lit my Chanukah candles way late, but unfortunately spent my middle Chanukah days sick with a sore throat and asthma.  I have been delinquent over the last few days of lighting my candles as I have been so sick I feared falling asleep and burning the house down.
They have menorah's of all shapes and sizes as you can see...this one less traditional.
I would call this one the Carrie Bradshaw Menorah, with cheap Chanukah candles:

Today I am better so I said my blessings using my Hebrew transliteration and then said them in English.  Word to the wise do not buy cheap Chanukah candles.  They go every which way and they burn out too quickly.  I prefer the traditional candelabra type.
I have a beautiful new menorah, but also a cheap one that I am using so that the candles do not make such a mess on it.  Moving the menorah is bad-something about the mitzvah I don't understand yet, but I will.
Good Shabbas,
Kathy
