windows: check!

[mckitterick]

Continuing the home improvement tasks (a fine metaphor for life, I suggest), I just finished winterizing the upstairs windows in the house. Now they are all sealed in clear plastic shrink-wrap. It feels warmer up here already, no joke! And not just because it's warm and sunny outside; the windows no longer have a little breeze between 'em.

Side note: The definition of a happy Tatsuko: Though I just ran the hair-dryer for several minutes, she did not freak out. Remained asleep on the curtain that was lying on the floor, in fact.

Glad you're keeping warm. Good windows make a bigger difference than anyone can imagine. I love that feeling of accomplishment you speak of - it sounds like your already on a good path for 2006.

Hey why not post some pictures for those of us who have not been able to visit.

Hmmm... good idea. Well, the icon for this post is the front of the house! I should take more.

I swear by that window shrink wrap (instead of swearing at the cold). It's made a world of difference in my home office/studio. Stopping the drafts added at least five degrees to the ambient temperature up here. (And listening to a music mix of soundtracks from desert movies helps, too.)
