He Broke My Chandelier

June 26th, 2008 by Kristy

One of the things I really liked about this place from the time we first looked at it was the chandelier in the kitchen. It’s not fancy by any means, but it’s pretty. Unfortunately, we have really low ceilings, so Hubby hits his head on it daily.

He has been cussing it every since we moved in. I tried to get him to remove the link between the fixture and the ceiling, but he says that wouldn’t work. I think it would, but I’d rather not do it myself. So it hasn’t been done.

A couple of days ago, I was in the living room and heard a crash. I knew what it was without even having to look. We had taken one of the light bulbs out of the chandelier to put somewhere else, and the globe covering that socket had fallen out when Hubby hit his head on it. Grrr.

So now I guess we’ll be looking at indoor lighting options. I’d love to have another chandelier, but I’m not even going to bother. It would probably get broken too, and even if it didn’t, I’m tired of hearing a bunch of griping about it.
