FINALLY after a Saga including three separate refunds (one of which hasn't yet processed) from eBay sellers who had promised they definitely had two of the IKEA PS 2014 copper-and-white 35cm lampshades in stock and definitely weren't reckoning they could just pop into IKEA, buy it, and sell it at a massive mark-up to suckers on the internet, having not yet cottoned on to the part where that specific iteration of it had been discontinued--

-- plus a purchase made last week with "one-day delivery" that didn't get actually put into the post until Monday and then Hermes didn't get it to me til earlier today--

-- I have the thing my mother originally wanted, for less than it would have been from IKEA new (probably), in the correct size, in its box with all of its instructions, even though I was mildly concerned the seller might have Misled me about the diameter, and now I get to never think about this again (at least until I construct this one for her, and flatten the larger one back out for possible eventual installation in the mouldering ancestral pile).

(Also today: lots more paper, lengthy digression on the topic of my supervisor's hatcat, [personal profile] cesy dragging me out to the allotment, Infinite Pyjamas.)
