The past two days have been busy. We had several new windows installed which caused the disruption of the entire house. It was worth it however, as the new windows are beautiful, more energy efficient, and they have blinds between the glass so that I can close them to hide things like deer, skunks and raccoons from Katie. Here is a look at the transformation.

This is our breakfast room sliding glass door opening, after the old panels had been removed.

And here it is with the new door and windows installed!

And even more dramatic, a corner of our living room without any windows…

…and how it looks completed.

Notice that I have the option now of closing the blinds on the lower windows so that poor Katie the dog can’t see anything out in the back yard…at least from that vantage point! She’s figured that out and now camps out in front of another door with a view of the yard.

PS: Katie and I camped out last night for probably the last time this summer. She went the entire night without barking at any real or imagined danger. She’s a camping girl now!
