Clumsy One

About a month and a half ago Brian brought a green plastic chair home at Danny's request. Well, it had been outside for a long time before Brian brought it home, so it was somewhat faded and I thought it wouldn't be too sturdy. One of the bottom of the legs was broke, but Danny sat on it when he came home to get the dirt out of the bottoms of his shoes, and Brian would sit in it while keeping Amber company outside. Today was a really nice day. Instead of getting up to freezing or a little above and being windy, it was gorgeous. Bright blue sky, slight breeze, temps in the upper 40's low 50's and in the sun it was warmer. Amber decided she was going to go ahead and get some sun, so she lay on he porch and Brian went out to keep her company, as usual sitting in the chair. About half an hour later I see him fall to one side of the porch while still in the chair. After Amber stopped laughing they found a piece of plastic that came off the armrest and tried fitting it everywhere except for where it came from. After they figured it out Brian moved the chair to the side of the porch near the windows and him and Amber were talking and laughing. About twenty minutes later I see Brian fall really hard into the side of the house...his legs were straddling the chair and one arm was hooked to it. The leg broke on the chair. I think it's time to get a more sturdy one next time.
