I had such a chair.
I saw it out of the corner of my eye, perched on the side of the road as if it were just waiting for me to drive by.

(I still don’t know how I got it in that car… you should have seen me trying to get it out!)
Do you ever buy something and then a few days later, or a few months later think, what was I thinking?
I tend to do this mostly when I bring home garage sale finds. OR, when my husband sees my garage sale finds and asks, “Now what are you planning to do with THAT?”
