COVID 19 - Shelter in Place - Day 15

We woke up to a lot of rain this morning, so we tackled several projects around the house. We organized our storage room, brought up our porch furniture, and I re-filled out porch cushions. We've had our screened porch furniture for 7 summers and we basically live out there in the spring/summer/fall. The foam in the cushions was completely crushed and it was basically like sitting on the wooded slats. We looked into order replacements, but it was going to be over $1200 which seemed ridiculous. I was able to find indoor/outdoor foam and took apart the cushions to replace the foam. Then I reapplied the two layers of batting and the inner cover before putting them back in the canvas covers. They are so much better! We had a break in the rain in the early afternoon and went for a walk around the neighborhood and then we played another family game of Risk. After dinner, I did a Zoom call with the Bronco Brown hockey moms. COVID-19 update: 4,650 cases in Michigan with 15 in Kalamazoo. That number is misleading, however, because Kalamazoo does not have many tests available so the actual number is much higher.

New Foam vs. Old Foam
