Lovely navy-and-cream-striped umbrella, sturdy stand and base, two chairs with matching cushions. Retail: $200ish. After assembly of said pieces, inability to move without excruciating pain…add in costs of emergency room visit, prescriptions for muscle relaxants, pain meds, second urgent care visit, more prescriptions, and a visit to the chiropractor. Total cost in dollars, not adding time of lost work/life/ease of movement: $280, bringing total cost of the whole charade to nearly $500. Hmmm. I believe the flavor of love needed is appreciation: as I slowly shuffle my sciatica-ridden body to the window, pain meds in hand, I look out at the patio and smile at its fabulousness.
