We have windows!\u00a0 I realize that some people might take this state of affairs for granted in their house, but when you have been providing a banner year for your propane company\u2019s revenues by semi-heating a house with huge gaping holes in it, windows are a positive development.\u00a0 We even have state-of-the-art windows, which are made of a composite material for the exterior frame and wood on the interior frame.\u00a0 The result is a window that lasts longer, being less susceptible to rotting.\u00a0 (I am quoting verbatim here, as I do not pretend to know anything at all about windows.)<\/p>\n

And did I mention that each of the bathrooms (with the exception of the guest bathroom) will have heated floors??\u00a0 Naturally, the boys in the family have been completely indifferent to this epic development, while the girls have been dancing jigs of joy at the news.\u00a0 Clearly, this is an X and Y chromosome differentiator issue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
