Replacing a broken set of blinds in my house and apparently no one sells the old standard kind where you pull the cord to raise them, I guess because kids and/or pets could tangle in the cord? Bit of an education in miniblinds today.

    Unrelated to blinds but my friend told me about having hanging Christmas cords. Her car cat made a wrong jump and she came home to a dead cat. She was 5. I am trauma’d.

      I know what you were trying to write, but I am still picturing your friend as 5 yr old, speeding her car over a ramp so bad, it caused her cat miles away at home to die in shock.
