What that's it?

 I hope not!!

(First of the daffodils flowering)

Friday was a glorious day.  I spent most of the morning in the basement, stripping down the basement windows and washing everything.  Not sure when washing three windows became a tiring job, but it was!!  I was pooped afterwards.  However I did go outside and did some tidying up on the front porch and in the garden as it's yard waste week, and honestly it was so nice outside, I just wanted to feel a bit of sunshine on my face.

Fast forward to Saturday and it poured down, I mean really poured down.  Perfect weather for ducks but that's about it!  I hope that the one day of nice weather isn't it, before the summer heat hits.......just saying!!  Spring is a bit of a one day it's here, and then the next day it's gone situation!!

Do you clean windows at your home?  Or do you get a service in to do them?  I clean ours though not every other week, like I was taught to do while living in the UK.

When I lived in my house, windows were washed frequently. Apartment living is very different, twice a year. Cleaned???? One bucket of water from the 8th floor down to the first. I am on the 5th floor so mine are so, so. I do my balcony doors on a regular basis.

I clean mine about every month or so. Find it much easier since putting a Karcher window vac on my xmas list a few years ago. It leaves windows and big mirrors streak free as it sucks up the water.

I like those daffodils.
A very good window cleaner visits quite regularly.

All the best Jan

The RC cleans our windows and luckily our windows are new-ish and they open inwards to make them easy to clean. We only have four windows so not a big job.
There were snow flurries again this morning and tomorrow, if the weather report is to be believed, is supposed to break records for being cold.

I find it fascinating how energizing that spring weather can be, drawing so many of us out into the yard! I only wash some of my windows 3 or 4 times a year. I really need to have a lot of windows replaced. They are old and not very efficient and although the seals don't seem to have broken, they are a bit hazy. But, I do have to wash our sliding glass door and the window in my sewing room. Those glass areas are decorated with Corgi nose prints!

When we got married I told Harvey I don't do windows or paint (have broken down and painted outdoors) and so he does the windows twice a year.

God bless.

Wiped out...........

After everything that went on last week, I am wiped out.  I thought I had more energy than I had, but no, I am pooped.  It's funny we al...
