Windows and a Poodle...

Hello and Happy Thursday everyone!
I had such a busy day yesterday...
I had to run some errands and I had brand
new Windows installed in my house!
That's my favorite part! :o) The house I live in
was built in 1950 and when I came here to
Utah and saw this house it was Summer and
soooo pretty outside that I never thought
twice about looking at the windows.... Well
we moved into this house on Dec. 1st 2005...
Which was a very cold day and I hadn't noticed
much because I was moving in... then we had snow...
and then it got colder and colder over the past 5 yrs. of living
here that.... FINALLY I noticed the TERRIBLE windows
we had! Sooo we finally had them replace yesterday and
they are BEAUTIFUL and they should help to keep
my house warm this winter! It only took me 5 yrs. to
do this! But it's certainly going to be worth it this yr.
And the best part is that I can actually OPEN the windows
without my hands getting chopped off due to the
windows not being able to stay open on their own! LOL
I'm soooo happy it's done!
Enough about my Windows, here is today's card! :o)
