I don't know what came over me. I was thinking about what we had read in high school almost 70 years ago and suddenly I felt I needed to read Alfred, Lord Tennyson's, The Idylls of the King. The entire thing. So here I am, reading for about an hour each morning Victorian epic poetry. It's a very, very long poetic epic.
I have always liked Tennyson's Crossing The Bar, but still......


Carol, yes, I remember!
Anyone remember this?


I'm sorry I don't have a specific organization suggestion. I know there are suicide prevention hotlines and maybe there would be one local that would accept donations? I'm sorry that you and your friends are going through this.

I too think Annie’s suggestion is a good one. If you want to look more deeply, there are also some highly rated charities that support young people, and those that support the surviving family members of those who committed suicide. I cannot imagine the pain of a parent or sibling when this happens. You can check Charity Navigator to see what percentage goes directly to those they serve.

I am so sorry to all who have lost someone to suicide. I agree with Annie’s suggestion. My best friend’s brother died by suicide, and she and her family were helped tremendously by connecting with other survivors through AFSP.

Funny animals, they are so patient with our silliness.

Lisa, I agree. My daughters were raised with. a Golden Retriever! We always dressed her for Halloween, usually in their past costumes. She was such a good sport.
But one day, I really looked at her and realized she didn't like it at all.

Last Halloween for Casey. She passed during DD2’s freshman year at Pitt.
She was perfect. Kindergarten to college, this one dog. I often joked that my daughters were to not just raised with her but by her! All the best qualities come from her.😀

" How do you like it? "
I think it gives a bistro...open concept look. Here's another shot of the rental. The fireplace has a carrera marble/stone surround. A walk-in pantry with a glass etched "Pantry" door in the back. Each of my rentals has it's own personality. :0) I think it works for the clientele it will attract.



Oh...and....I paid $15 a fixture, NIB, before tax and shipping.
I like THIS one too @ $150ea...


Use some painters tape and rub n buff and add that gold band yourself.

On a PC, I just entered "Simple Ceiling Medallions". I do know that you get different hits with a PC over a phone. Many of the pictures on the first page were nice plus they gave you sites to shop from.
Here is a link for one I liked Medaillion
Since you have a flat ceiling, I would be tempted to just make the repair unless their is some reason why an electrician would tell you otherwise.

Thank you-it's helpful to read the comments and I appreciate the feedback.
I think there are several products like that on the market and I was just intrigued by this one, especially because you now how it goes with the algorithms. Once I apparently clicked on some part of their ad, they really bombarded me with more. The funny part is I wear foundation maybe 3 times a year.
I'll see if one of these moments I decide to give it a try, but I wouldn't bet on it. Once I have to get all rational, and all... the bloom is off that rose.

For a few years I have been using this, because it has sun protection and some other benefits, including the fact that it doesn’t settle into fine lines and looks natural. I would still like to find something with a little more coverage at times, but everything I’ve tried seems to accentuate every little line.


I use Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer. The other day I noticed that I have three tubes and none are the same shade. I don't know why and I can't seem to tell.
Maybe I need glasses more than Tinted Moisturizer?
I do notice that young women today go pretty heavy on the "foundation," really evening out skin tones. Not sure I want that look.
