Grrrrrrrrrr........

I feel the need to vent today.




I just spent most of the morning trying to find two light bulbs. Two simple ordinary light bulbs that used to be so easy to pick up anywhere. HA!

Not anymore.


There are so many different kinds now.....


incandescent, fluorescent, compact fluorescent, LED, halogen, energy savers.......


warm light, daylight, real light, cool light.....

and the shapes.....so strange and so ugly! I don't even know what some of them are used for.

I was so frustrated after trying three different stores just to find a light bulb for my living room lamp. An incandescent 3-way is what I wanted (and oh, yes, this one is being phased out) which is really upsetting because it's the only kind I can really see to read by.





Then I find out the under the counter fluorescent light bulb in my kitchen no longer comes in warm light (well, I was told it could be ordered but that would take up to 2 weeks) and so I had to settle for a cool light which I absolutely hate.
Does anybody else have issues with light bulbs???
Life used to be so simple.





Pardon me for venting...
(I really don't get upset about too many things.)
