My beautiful, brand-new, double-pane windows have been installed. I got home after my run yesterday afternoon and the installers were finishing packing up their gear to leave. All four windows at the back of the house are now totally replaced, properly sealed and wonderful.
It took a bit of time. Not just the installation but the entire process. It took about two months or a little more than two months depending on if you count from the time we first paid for them or the time we went in to set up measurements. It should have taken half that amount of time but, of course, there was some defect on one of the windows when they first came in, so it needed to be reordered. Then there was more waiting to set up the installers.
But for all that, they are done. All the old windows are gone and already forgotten. It's amazing how the new cleaned up and made the back of the house looks so new. We will be replacing the back door next (we had the installers take the measurement already)! Improvements are moving slowly but there is finally some momentum going. We will still need to replace the upstairs windows and then there is the monster of the upstairs bathroom that has been a festering sore for so very long. But momentum...the reality of seeing how much better the new is actually pushes me forward to do the next thing.
I didn't realize I could be so excited about windows.
