Travels of the Agnew Family for 2008.01.01 to 2010.01.31

Yesterday I decided to bite the bullet and wash the windows. It's something I've been thinking about for ages and decided that if I didn't do it now I'd never get to it. The windows in my last house were tilt and turn windows, they opened inwards like a door and were easy to wash. The windows in this house are double hung vertical sliders and I initially thought that I'd have to get a ladder to wash the outside. Happily, I was wrong. Pushing two buttons releases the top of the window and presto it falls into the room exposing the outside for easy washing. Turned out it was a fairly easy job except for the one window where the bottom catch has a problem (didn't fall out but it thought about it) and another window didn't want to slide anymore once I had opened it.

Today I cleaned the house and in general got organized as my mom and brother are coming for a few days. We have some day trips planned so it should be fun.
