Thanks! I already have work boots, rose gloves, protective eyewear, cardboard boxes and shop vac lined up ready to go. The explosion was, apparently, so powerful, that chards of glass blew out of the bathroom onto the carpet in the bedroom. I’m used to dealing with broken glass - I’m a lab rat. When a 12-liter flask breaks, there is a lot to clean up!

I studied the wall where the mirror used to be - it is amazing how cleanly it broke off! No glue on the wall - I could not have done it better even if I tried to remove it.

Me thinks I will need another mirror. It is hard to apply makeup when you cannot see what you are doing I’m looking for mirrors with lighted edges, just like the cool mirror we had in our hotel in Berlin. Any design suggestions are welcome - the old mirror was probably 7 feet by 4 feet. Yup, a big sucker. I think 2 separate framed mirrors and a makeup shelf in the middle will be a good design.
