It rained most of the weekend so no yard sales. I did go to a couple of thrift stores and did quite well. This chair was 5.00. The cushion needs major help but it is very old. The cushion has springs inside it.
I had some time so I redid the cushion and spray painted it. The first try the cover was to big ,the second try was to small. I will give it another try at some point but for now it is what it is.
I stopped at the dump and found a few things. A Vera Bradley purse, a rolling pin, some kids books, and a high chair. Now one would ask what would a woman of my years want with a high chair? Wellllll!
We are going to be GRANDPARENTS!!!!!!. Our (only child) daughter and her husband are expecting in January.
She just graduated with her masters last month. She and Ron will be wonderful parents and I am so proud of them!!! She teaches so she is taking the summer off to rest up. On everybody loves Raymond, Frank use to call the baby smell the fountain of youth. I think he was right. I can't wait to snuggle a baby again.
