Today, I broke my mother's Tiffany lamp from the 1920's. Practically crying, I raced onto the computer to try to find one to order before she comes back in three weeks. The lamp is worth over twelve thousand dollars, and the only way I'm getting one is if I lived 90 years ago. FML

Clarification: I broke the lamp by complete accident. I was vaccuming my living room and I caught the edge of the vaccuum on the end of the coffee table, and the light went crashing to the ground. I did tell my mom, and she was initially upset, but the lamp itself didn't have any sentimental value, making the situation a bit better. It was a vintage lamp she got at an auction in France. Thank you for your concerns and comments, haha, I've learned my lesson.

Good luck finding foster parents. Someone's getting disowned.

There are places that specialize in these sorts of repairs. It's not cheap, but it'd be worth looking into.

you deserve this one, come on you broke her lamp, then you are trying to cover up your mistake. Sadly you may not find one again so just face the music, your mom will forgive you since it was a MISTAKE
