Whew! Big window job done!

I was sure there was no way we’d be able to install the second row of windows on the second storey ourselves. I mean, these windows are 20-25 feet above the ground, and we’re just two people – one of us being petrified of heights and not exactly an ironwoman. But then we got one window in…

And after a few moments of feeling like I was going to barf, we got a second window in…

Goofball! There was still some work to do after the windows were  installed, which I was happy to let Brian do. I wasn’t going out onto 4 levels of scaffolding and then climbing a ladder!

Now just 10 windows left to install and about a million other things to do!

  2. Oh my! I'd want to barf too. But it looks wonderful! That ladder on a scaffold looks about as safe as my husband's ladder in the back of the truck. Men!
