This past weekend we were able to get in the new window. First, I would like to say, I love the window. It is 55 inches by 44 inches. It’s a large window that provides a great view. Second, I would like to say, damn that thing was heavy.
Don’t you think another window would look lovely at the top of the gable? Hint Hint… Maybe in the Fall when it gets done being made for us.

My how she has changed since we first bought her two years ago.


It won’t be long until the new deck and then siding goes up…
Now you just need to expand the house to balance the gable. 😊

And that is the plan.

You’ve made such a lot of progress – do you know how many more major projects you will have until she’s done? Honestly, I don’t think the window would look good at the top of the gable, not a square window anyway. Maybe a small round one, but I still think it might be a mistake and you should leave it for a project at the end, it’s easier to wait than to remove the window and repair the structure if you decide after that it wasn’t such a good decision….

The window that is going at the top is a triangle. Major projects: the back needs a gable and the side needs an addition. Besides that, we are going to start back on the inside again this weekend. A new deck is going on the front. The back deck,
the small one, is coming down because it’s old and will be joined with the other one we built last year. Then we need a shed and gardens, a new kitchen and a new bathroom. I expect the whole project to be done in about 3 to 4 years.. and oh ya lets not forget we need to put siding on it… This is a complete over hall.

Wow, that is a complete overhaul. I did think about a triangular window – but having never seen one before, hesitated to suggest it. Now I’m looking forward to seeing it!

Thanks, all the windows are irregular sizes so they are all being made. That one will be ready end of this month or sometime soon after that.

Certainly a lot different from purchase – an old lady has a new lease of life and is looking young and fresh. Be lovely when you have finished.
