I asked for it! … Winter returns

Ask and you shall receive.

Ha!

I asked and I received!!!

Before…

But, then … Winter returned.

Ultimately, as of Monday evening … less than an inch of snow.

But COLD and windy … wind chill. Temp at 6:40 p.m. Monday evening is 8F. Wind chill is -12F, although at my house, a bit of wind shadow makes it not as bad as in the valley.

Still, it is a 1 dog, 1 kitten night for sure!

And to add to the fun … my new windows are supposed to be installed tomorrow and Wednesday…

I ordered a style similar to above in late October and they were to be done and installed in March.

The company has been absolutely wonderful. They called me once a month with progress. Despite a prognosis of “we are running behind”, they are running ahead and last week tentatively scheduled installation for tomorrow and Wednesday.

I have had 3 calls re tomorrow’s hoped for install. I am not optomistic as it was 9F this morning at my house and as of this writing (6:42 p.m.), it is 7F and falling … clear skies… meaning it will continue to get colder with a forecast morning low of -5F … but I think it might get colder than that!!

So, per conversations with the installer, I am doing no prep. If by some miracle, he thinks it is ok to install, we will work together for moving furniture and window coverings.

Meanwhile, I worked a full day on this “holiday” Monday so as to have some time leeway for the install if it happens. My office is not getting new windows, so if/when … Emmett, Oscar and I will be in the office and all the commotion will happen otherwise!

Cheers and stay tuned – Happy Monday!
