Windows!

We've been anxious about the arrival of the windows. I know that may sound silly but I'll explain. We found a photo of the style of windows we wanted and gave it to our builder. He called a few days later and told us he had found what we wanted. That in itself is all my wife needed and she moved on to the next decision and falls to sleep when her head hits the pillow each night. But I'm just not wired that way. So I guess I started this post with a misleading statement and I apologize. It should start, "I've been anxious". Now I know I've stated in previous post about the trust I have in our builder but to be honest with you, waiting on windows that I haven't seen has been pretty rough. But maybe what helps most is a quote I try to apply to my life when given the chance. It's a quote by the GREAT Ronald Reagan who said, "Surround yourself with the best people you can find, delegate authority, and don't interfere as long as the policy you've decided upon is being carried out".




All 36 windows made it, despite my worry.




The windows are Jeld-Wen double hung 2 over 2




The dining room to your right, looking into the living room ahead. 10 foot ceilings with a cased opening makes the rooms appear larger than they are




The windows turned out just like we wanted. We're hoping the exterior doors will be here this week. The electrical and rough plumbing will also begin in the next week to ten days
