Don't know about you, but things in life seldom go as planned... at least not for both of us.
After Pieter finished last year with the tiles on our balcony, we did order a Brown Jordan Chaise after we fell in love with it at the HYATT house Atlanta/Cobb Galleria during our stay of July 17.
First we had to search the internet and than order ONE.
The question over and over was; how many do you need for your resort?!

It took all summer though... On September 24, finally we drove to Atlanta to the warehouse where it had been delivered. I came back with this very chaise on TOP of my cute ute; the now 17-year old Ravy, my Toyota RAV4!
BUT no more summer use for 2013, only this year after a LONG wait because of a wet spring and big part of the summer, I got to use our new Brown Jordan Chaise!
This is it; different color frame however.
Ours is: Brown Jordan Patio Stacking Adjustable Flight Chaise 3940-7000 in White Lite color 055 with Versatex Mesh in Latte 1079
Yep, that's me wearing my Outlet Score from May 3, when we went to The Colonnade Outlets at Sawgrass Mills in Sunrise, Florida...
Just keep in mind that I am 3 x the age of your average model of 21 years young!
The sun is way too harsh to even look...
My natural gray hair; never ever used any dye...
THIS is a professional model and a lot younger!
But this triple-age girl was mighty proud for having snatched up a Wolford Forming Swimbody in Black, size Small, in cup B, with a whopping 75% Rebate!
Now that's what I call Outlet Scores; high quality for a steal.
Yep, my Egyptian feet...
Now each of us has a chaise on the balcony...
Love this new Brown Jordan Chaise & my Wolford Bathing Suit!
I had to laugh because: Wolford will discontinue its swimwear in spring 2015 (just click it)
Even though, I never will be making over–time on the balcony like this...

ReplyDeleteDearest Theresa,
DeleteYes, now is the time that we can enjoy it, not too hot and humid anymore... Yesterday we biked together in the afternoon and this afternoon I enjoyed the balcony for a while and we had tea there.

Mariette

Dearest Michiko,
DeleteThank you and yes, I did never ever use any kind of dye. Lived a rather frugal life and at the end it even paid off for having healthier hair.
We often do have our tea on the balcony in the afternoon, there is also a white (painted) teak table with 4 chairs, beside the 2 chaises...
Sending you hugs and love,
Mariette
Dearest Mariette,
ReplyDeleteYou look relaxed and fabulous in your swimsuit on the chaise lounge.
Thank you so much dear friend for your kind birthday wishes for Marcel and your visit.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend

Liebe und sonnige Grüsse,

Oh, chaiselongue look SO relaxing and how wonderful to be able to enjoy it finally, my dear friend♡♡♡ You look great with the swimsuit and you keep in shape amazingly.
ReplyDeleteBig Hugs and wishing you two wonderful weekend from Japan Dearest Mariette, xoxo Miyako*
Dearest Miyako,
DeleteThank you and yes, it is great to relax once in a while and this chaiselongue was so worth the extra wait! Time is passing so fast so there will be plenty of years ahead for enjoying this.
Well, for keeping in shape, I never ever have been over weight so I guess its just good genes and using my brains for continuing to eat healthy.
Hugs to you,
Mariette
Un felice weekend per te.
ReplyDeleteCaro Giancarlo,
DeleteGrazie e anche per te!
Un abbraccio,
Mariette
YOU, my dear are cover girl material!!
ReplyDeleteDearest Helen,
DeleteThank you so much dear friend! That was also the tricky part for finding out to have diabetes type 2, in November of 2007. I've never, ever been over weight... but still it can silently sneak into your system!
Hugs and happy Birthday weekend.
Mariette

ReplyDeleteso lässt es sich aushalten. Leider sind die schönen Tage bald vorbei.

Passform.
Ein schönes Wochenende wünscht dir

Auch ein schönes Wochenende und alles liebe,

Cara Mariette, complimenti per il tuo fisico....davvero un gran bel fisico....alla faccia di tutte le top model! Paola
ReplyDeleteCara Paola,
DeleteGrazie per le gentili parole e speriamo che posso rimanere in questo modo; soprattutto stare in buona salute. Sono fortunato per essere mai mai stata più di peso.
Baci,
Mariette
Dearest Mariette that is a great looking chaise ... so happy that you were able to get. WOW ... you are truly rocking that swimsuit ...you look fabulous!!! ...and how wonderful to have found it for a fraction of the original price... wishing you a wonderful week-end.. hugs, Celia M. (HHL)
ReplyDeleteDearest Celia,
DeleteThank you and yes, at times it pays off for hunting down something that is really good. It took us a long wait but it is worth it. I also feel so fortunate for having scored that expensive couture style swimsuit and even more so since they stop producing swimwear in 2015!
Enjoy a happy, cooler weekend with your love and furbabies.
Hugs,
Mariette
Dearest Mariette,
ReplyDeleteI can understanding when I writing about wrong things for you I am very sorry Dear Mariette,

Michiko
Dearest Michiko,
DeleteYou never write wrong things dear and don't you even dare to worry! For the past couple of years, I have come to admire you more and more for your attitude and perseverance to get better after your terrible accident that caused you brain damage. You have come a long way and try to be good to yourself especially! Enjoy your Sunday afternoon and hope it is sunny.
Hugs, love and above all ADMIRATION!
Mariette
Liebe Mariette,
ReplyDeleteDu hast noch die Figur eines jungen Mädchens! :-)
Ich mag natürliches Haar auch am liebsten. Allerdings hatte ich früher schon blonde Strähnchen ausprobiert oder auch rötliche. Aber auf Dauer schädigt diese Behandlung das Haar und gesund ist es auch nicht. Außerdem sieht man doch, daß es keine natürlichen Haarfarben sind, ganz gleich, wie gut es auch immer gemacht wurde!
Daher werde ich, wenn ich einmal Grau bin, wohl auch in Ehren ergrauen ;-)
Alles Liebe und einen schönen Sonntag
Sara
Liebe Sara,
DeleteDanke, mag sein aber jung bin ich nicht mehr... Es ist ein Segen denke ich um nie Probleme mit Gewichtzunahme zu haben!
Ja, die natürliche Haut- und Haarfarben gehören zusammen und besser als Mutter Natur können wir es ja gar nicht! Du hast Recht, in Ehren ergrauen...
Ganz liebe Grüsse und unser Sonntag war herrlich. Aus der Kirche Tee getrunken und dann auf'm Balkon zwei Monatshefte gelesen... Das Wetter war herrlich und sogar noch 30°C um 16:00 Uhr. Danach noch Bettwäsche gebügelt also fleissig am Sonntag!
Mariette
Hello Mariette....
ReplyDeleteOr should I call you "star"!!
My, you look gorgeous in this swimming costume!
You are very wise to look out for special offers, this lounge chair is great and I like the design!
Enjoy your sunday!
Dearest Noushka,
DeleteNo by all means; I am no star!
Wouldn't even want to trade with any so-called star...
Let us work hard, sweat, getting muddy at times and still be able to clean up and dress nicely thanks to great bargains.
The chair I enjoyed this afternoon, reading two magazines...
Hugs,
Mariette
Meine liebe Mariette,
ReplyDeletedu stiehlst dem Chaise die Show vollends. Was man sieht bist nur du. Ich persönlich finde du bist ein ganz tolles Model und dein Badekleid kleidet dich wirklich wunderbar.
3x Daumen hoch für Mariette! ;-))
Herzliche Grüsse
Julia
Liebe Julia,
DeleteRech herzlichen Dank für dein Lob! Ja wir sind beide sehr glücklich und haben unser Heim hier entlich in ordnung also hoffen wir so zusammen noch viele Jahren, mit unsere Katzenkindern, geniessen zu können!
Ganz liebe Grüsse,
Mariette
Dearest Mariette,
ReplyDeleteyour chaise looks great and comfortable! But let me tell you that you are a GORGEOUS model!!!! You look great, elegant whilst natural at the same time (which in my eyes is a great achievment for any woman at any age!), and definitely beautiful!!! I love the natural look of your hair, and yes, not having ever been dyed certainly shows as it looks so beautiful and healthy! Your feet are incredibly beautiful, too, Mariette :) I remembered you had Egyptian feet -- mine are Egyptian too :)
Big hugs from the Alps!
Dearest Anna,
DeleteThank you for your praise! Sunday I did take a nap, sleeping on my belly and that's why this chaise is so comfortable, with my arms up over my head there is no 'hard' obstruction that will start hurting... Next I sat on it while reading two magazines; feeling spoiled and happy!
Sometimes a long wait for good things does turn out oh so rewarding in the end. This chaise, like the other teak one, will last us a life time and we treasure them.
My hair has recovered from the years of Prednisone that I had to take, so glad about it being fuller again. I don't mind the gray; that's part of life too!
So happy that your Egyptian feet got to walk again the Greek Aegean Islands...
Hugs,
Mariette
Wat een prachtig zwempak Mariette en wat staat hij goed!
ReplyDeleteLieve groetjes uit een koud Nederland,
Hilly
Beste Hilly,
DeleteDank je! Zou het graag weer zo willen dragen maar ik woog zondag nèt 45.1 kg—nog ruim 5 kg te gaan om op mijn gewicht te komen. Maar ik vécht door!!!
Liefs,
Mariette
