Funny how the simple
chore of washing a few
windows
helped make
everything
more clear.

simple gifts
'Tis the gift to be simple,
'Tis the gift to be free,
'Tis the gift to come down
where we ought to be,
And when we find ourselves
in the place just right
'Twill be in the valley
of love and delight.

ooo, I love clean windows!!! Now that you reminded me I'll have to get busy!! lol
ReplyDeleteThere is no other house task that pays you back such dividends. Thanks for the nudge. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteOoo, I did this last week. For six hours. I've been dying to really scrub our windows since we moved in last December and I'm embarrassed that it took me this long. I couldn't lift my arms over my head for days afterward. I don't think some of these windows had been cleaned in decades. A few I had to scrub with glasstop stove cleaner before using a spray window cleaner, just to try to get the etched on crud off. The difference is HUGE. I also took out all the screens but will put off scrubbing those until spring when they need to go back in. I smile every time I look out a window now. :)
ReplyDeleteI love clean windows.... ours are not so easy to clean all the way around. So looking forward to new ones someday!
ReplyDeleteLove your photos!
