4 day weekend

 We've had a lovely long weekend, so far, despite new window issues, and the unpleasant weather yesterday.

Took Thursday off to meet up with friends travelling through Oklahoma on their way home from Texas to Ohio.

Got the office/guest room prepared for the new windows to be installed on Friday morning.

Then, the window guys came on Friday, but were only able to install one window.  

We ordered them in January, the installer came to DOUBLE CHECK the measurements in February.

But, when he finally came to install our pair of windows, only one window was the right size. 

The installer was quite upset about this, and could not get anyone to answer the phone, so he left, and said he would either be back with the correct window, OR call and let us know.

Needless to say, he did not come back, and said that our window was nowhere to be found in the warehouse.

We wondered if maybe whoever loaded up the trucks for the crews mixed orders up, and maybe our window went to the wrong house, and we had someone else's window.... but we never got an answer on that.

Dave called the original guy at Lowe's who quoted the job, and he told Dave to call someone else to open a work order to correct the situation, but no one ever called back.

So. It could be three MORE months before we have the window we paid for in JANUARY.

MAYBE, just maybe, someone will call tomorrow with an explanation, or to say that our window was found on another truck.

We got all of our errands done Friday afternoon, and enjoyed the hot tub on Friday evening.

It was 86 degrees on Friday, and 56 yesterday, with a wicked, cold wind.

Because of the biting wind, there was no woods walk yesterday, and probably won't be today, either.  This disappoints me, but we have had a good time off anyway.

Our friend Jules came over yesterday to refresh her memory on house sitting stuff for our vacation the last week of April.

Later today, I am getting my first hair cut in almost a year, and then I have a lecture I want to watch live on Facebook.

I'm hoping the hair cut will make the most of my waves, so that my hair looks less thin.  

Next weekend, before we leave on our trip, we're going to treat ourselves to mani-pedis!

Dave continues to put off his job of raking up the front yard, that has been a mess for a full month, since the bamboo was cut back. He said he might try to get to it today.

I'd like to mow the back yard again, but we'll see.  It for sure needs to be done before we leave town.

On that note, I am off to eat breakfast (Dave has started cooking breakfast again on the weekends!).

If you're celebrating Easter today, enjoy!
