This made me instantly think of a hideous green lamp gifted to me from my great aunt Frances. Fran was my grandmother’s aunt so I guess my great great aunt? Old anyway. I loved this lamp like the ugly duckling it was and we kept it up by the tv where only we would see it until your cousin Joe was horsing around with a friend and it broke (20 years ago maybe). I wasn’t too mad at Joe but I still remember the ugly lamp. People are weird huh?

It’s hard to not break things. 35 years ago, I broke a triangular, green glass vase my Mom bought herself in Italy before she was married. I had loved the blown glass faces on each side.
