Finally, A Lamp Update

After much searching, the human found a new lamp. The seemingly indestructible flowers-lamp is back in the living room, and in the bedroom is a new lamp - dark presumably indestructible wrought iron with a nicely shaped white shade... When it was unpackaged, assembled and plugged in, well, there was lots of help from cats and kittens. ($13.00, on sale, from Target.) (And the living room is livable again!)
