I've admired them for some time now. <br />No, I'm not washing windows this weekend. Not until spring outside. The insides were done in September. I do have some inside glass doors with little tiny fingerprints on them that should be attended to. But not until next week since the little fingers will be over tomorrow.<br />Lorriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653026442945027184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-87562099372011175112012-11-03T23:39:10.237-04:002012-11-03T23:39:10.237-04:00Our windows need to be washed on the outside!

It was so dirty from fly and spider poo!! However, there are 4 other upstairs windows that need a washing and haven't been done for years! Maybe there will be a warm day in November that M. can do them. (I do the insides every spring and fall). Surprisingly the rain didn't streak the front window as we have a large overhang. I can still see clearly. ;)Pamela Gordonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071092617682650349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-82355847443734899652012-11-03T14:11:53.049-04:002012-11-03T14:11:53.049-04:00Every time we wash the windows it pours!
