New windows

























So, on Saturday we started getting our new windows installed. After living in this house for several winters we have gotten very good at putting plastic on the windows, followed by multiple curtains. However, even then sometimes you can still see curtains moving in a good wind storm. So, instead of going on some tropical vacation we invested our tax return in new windows for the main floor of our house, 17 windows in all. Next week they should finish with them all, and I am so excited, because it is almost warm enough to take down the various random curtains and actually be able to see the beauty of what is happening outside of my house! PS. the pictures are 1) one room without windows 2)before picture in the kitchen - plastic and all 3)new window in kitchen. Look how clear the glass and screen are! No more wavy glass here!

I wish for you a week of truly nasty weather (or maybe just 3-4 days) so you can see how big of a difference this actually makes.

And then I wish you a 200 dollar a month heating bill.
When you re-do your basement windows, maybe you can get a 100 dollar a month bill - that will be like a 400 dollar a month raise!
