We got it at Menards. It's two separate seats with two glass tables between them and a sort of glass holder. We got it several years ago at the end of year clearance. My Siberian Iris just bloomed yesterday. They are a glorious deep purple. My Spider Wart is blooming as well. The Universe sent me a surprise gift of a whole other one several feet from the others. They must have traveled there because I didn't plant it.<br /><br />I don't post enough. If I am not creating something I guess I think stuff about our boring life is....well...boring to others. BUT, it is good to get things you are thinking about off your mind. I keep a private blog for that. I write what I would say to someone that my tactful self can't allow myself to say. It beats staying awake all night thinking about it.<br /><br />Have a great week. We'll have 2 sunny days then 4 of rain. It's the going pattern now.<br />xx, CarolCarol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-162042727452052782.post-52030928420608162272019-06-02T20:17:16.844-04:002019-06-02T20:17:16.844-04:00I like the looks of that swing.

It looks a bit on the firm side. I practically live on my porch swing 6 months of the year. Mine was old when I bought it used, and I had cushions made up for it. They were made of leatherette but my bare legs kept sticking to it in summer so I keep a quilt on it.<br /><br />I blog because I don't get out much and as Ginny remarked, I don't feel so alone.

I loved it, the fabric wore out I draped stuff over it. now the seat is broken and I can't use it. bob was going to repair it, but that was 3 years ago. I did not know Amazon sells WM stuff. I know exactly what you felt about looking for the hacksaw, I got so frustrated last week looking for pinch nosed pliers, he has about 6 different sizes, I could not find the little one any where, but later there it was under the others. I was so mad and almost crying. that is happening a lot these days. I GET YOU!MadSnapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08163140037276496519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-162042727452052782.post-12375834122906993562019-06-02T14:57:23.464-04:002019-06-02T14:57:23.464-04:00This day to day stuff may be boring to you, but no...This day to day stuff may be boring to you, but not to me. A lot of my favorite posts of Sandra's are just things that happen every day. I bet most of us will relate to them, and won't feel so alone. I can really relate to your hacksaw story! What could be better than swinging on the porch? Maybe with a cold drink. I can't wait to see your new swing! I do not like fabric for outdoors either! It can get mold from the wet, and other bad things. The color of your lily is gorgeous!!Ginny Hartzlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329131153403895625noreply@blogger.com
