I do not. I lived in a house that had ceiling lights and chandeliers in every room, so we didn't have any lamps other than a couple desk lamps.

I remember it being a PITFA to change the bulbs, though. Two of the chandeliers were in awful places. 1 was at the top of the central ceiling which was essentially 3 stories from the floor and the other was directly over the stairs, where you couldn't really position a ladder safely.

We had a stained glass chandelier in my 1980s childhood bungalow that was perfectly placed to bonk your head on as you stood up from the table. The bulb burned out and the whole thing pretty much disintegrated trying to change it
