Someone check the weather forecast for Hell, because we’ve had two gloriously sunny days in a row here in Cleveland, with temperatures in the low-to-mid-50’s. That by itself is absolutely delightful, but what’s really astounding is that it was this nice on a weekend. The universe just isn’t supposed to work like this!
After a couple minutes of laying in bed watching the world be sunny and nice outside, I realized that today would be the perfect day to put the last coat of paint onto the windows. I certainly didn’t expect to be able to have the windows open all day until spring, so it was a real treat. And the feeling of accomplishment this evening when the blue tape came off was really quite nice. All that’s left now are the muntin bars, which must still be primed and painted, but they’ll be easy to take care of this week.
Between the window painting but prior to the masking tape ceremonies, we met up with ![[info]](http://stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
texodore at a coffee shop in North Olmsted. He and his wife are headed back to North Carolina tomorrow, so our schedules only barely overlapped. We had a great time getting caught up; safe journeys home, Jeff.
To wrap this up, how about a couple of photos from Christmas and my happy happy windows?
Andy, Lauren, and Shanahan (aka “Shanny”)
The makings of a tasty holiday feast…
Shanny wants turkey too…

Free (of blue tape) at last!

Yay, painting.
A belated merry Christmas to you both.
Hopefully Liz fed you that night. We did make it back safely except for the hour and a half traffic jam right before the NC border. Some accident with an 8 mile backup.
