~HOME SHOPPING...~

Today I painted.  I have been looking for a table to sit in front of the swing..and so far nothing I liked..
Today..there it was just sitting in the corner of the patio with a big fern on it...getting rusty.  I removed the fern to a cozy corner under the evergreen tree in the corner of our yard...and got out the white spray paint. 


Done!


It works just fine and I didn't spend a dime.  I always have white spray paint around....
Needs a different table topper...but...later...it's getting dark outside.
Hmmm...maybe a pretty round tray??  or...
That doily just doesn't do it.  Yuk! ...nope..it's coming off!  I'll think of something.


This poor old bench was out under a tree and not in great shape.  I bought it many years ago and it was old then..so after a scrub job and a paint job...extra seating on the patio.  (Don't look to close...it's battered and broken..but strong.
Mele is arguing with me about something in the background...I think she is inviting me to play because I see she has her little toy with her..."sorry Mele, no time, maybe later!"  :)

Yep...I like it.  (How I wish the patio deck was finished..but it just cannot be helped. 
(Graduation party preparations are what's happening here for two Grandchildren.)

What a busy day it was.  (maybe I can find another rug or something to cover that concrete...shoot!)

I did a bit of visiting today and found many are doing the same thing I am...fluffing the outside pillows...or in.
I really do enjoy playing in the yard..it's not work to me. 

Retirement is better then I dreamed it would be.  Different..but really nice.  I used to dream of days when all I had to do was putter around the yard and house..it's wonderful~!!
