Title: Blue candlestick
Post by: greenacres on February 26, 2017, 05:52:26 PM: I am emptying out my mother in laws's apt. I'm exhausted. This is only one candlestick holder. There is no matching. Looking through my glass book now. What are your thoughts?

Post by: greenacres on February 28, 2017, 06:18:48 PM: It's been really hard. She is still living and we are getting rid of her things. It's a horrible feeling. She is happy thank goodness where she is at the tune of $12,000. a month. I would like to educate the people who don't understand long term care. That commercial that says "What do you need to retire?" You don't even have a clue!!! Done venting, lol.

Wow !! Do not know if any other health problems are involved but that cost is way out of the normal price range !! Here in Texas the average cost is between $4K and $6K and that is for quality care !!
How old is your MIL ??

Post by: KC on March 10, 2017, 03:04:51 PM: There is something there on the rim Mart. Just can't make it out from this picture.

Try taking a picture with it sitting on a dark solid background - it might help it to stand out. If not, a solid white background. NO FLASH!
