1970s Brutalist Lamp

In love with this lamp I picked up yesterday.

Branch hanging low?

Just moved into a new house and trying to learn more about the trees. Is it okay for the limb to almost touch the ground like this?

Severe pmdd is ruining my life

Doing continuous dosing (10mg) for my lifelong depression and a variant of the burst method for pmdd (an extra 10mg daily during luteal).

My pmdd has gotten substantially worse in my 30s and I just want to have a cycle where I don't teeter on self harm. I've tried it all and prozac was actually the first med I took way back when I was 18. I think I was dosed too high at the time and gave up quickly because of side effects.

Now I have a dr who understands that pmdd is real and knows the research to treat it appropriately. Staying hopeful for now...

Just came out of luteal, alive thankfully, so I'll update again in a few weeks 🤞🏻

Covering ceiling hole?

Hi, is there a quick option for covering this hole where a fan used to be? I know the best option is adding matching wood pieces but I'm just looking for an easier and cheaper temporary solution that doesn't look heinous, if possible. Thank you!

Poison ivy? Chiggers? Staph? Other?

Timeline:

Thursday - I was outside in the evening and thought I got bit by some mosquitoes on my legs. I'm usually very sensitive to mosquito bites--instant swelling--but didn't notice much. Thought that was unusual but I just moved to a new state, so who knows 🤷‍♀️

Friday - Noticed some small bug bites on my legs, okay mosquitoes as I thought but still no swelling as I usually experience. Proceeded to do 3 hours of lawncare that evening where I trimmed a lot of hedges.

Saturday and Sunday - Can't remember, so basically nothing of note regarding bug bites.

Today - This area on my leg is noticeably swollen (can see it bump out) and pretty red. I also saw what I thought to be the dreaded poison ivy blisters, something else I'm highly allergic to, so I applied prescription steroid cream from my last reaction. It also seems like one of the blisters popped and there was oil from that area. Terrific, I thought, lots of blisters in my future.

...However, later tonight I've noticed yellow crusting and scabbing in the middle of these bumps. I've had poison ivy a number of times and haven't had that before, plus no other noticeable spread, so now I'm not sure.

Any thoughts?
