Window Install - Day 1

8:00am sharp Allen was here with his worker guy and they jumped right into working on installing the window. It was exciting to see them work. It was interesting to see the process. Tools all over the front yard—they were noisy and I loved it. 

It was going to take them all day, but it was going to be beautiful by the end of the day.




Or not. This is what it looked like at about 11:00am. Four out of six windows didn't fit. Didn't fit, as in too small!  I couldn't believe it. Boy was Allen mad. He was barely talking. The window guy must have forgotten how to measure. (NO Allen did not make this mistake)



Allen and his worker guy (can't remember his name, Scott I think.) did what they could. They installed the two center windows. They are beautiful, BTW! We love them. They put up all the construction adhesive and then boarded up the window spaces and put plastic over the entire thing, since we are supposed to get rain this weekend. 

Allen is working on a rush for the replacement windows. I'll keep you posted, but it will be about a week. A week. I just keep telling myself it will be so beautiful when it's finished. So beautiful.
