uh oh.....
OK. Another snag. We've just gotten the window estimates back from Marvin and it's going to take them ELEVEN WEEKS to deliver our windows to us. Which is a huge drag as we were planning on more like 6 to 8. I have yet to speak to our contractor about this... Thus far, I have just been practicing deep breathing exercises while my husband works himself into a frenzy. Lucky for me, Josh has left town on a job and won't be back for a few days, during which time I will have hopefully learned to meditate and be well on my way to achieving ultimate happiness. But until then, we are also trying to figure out with our window/door salesman Tim, who I still love, just what, exactly, the hold-up is about. Maybe we can come up with a fix that's a little bit better than 3 months.
My mother sent me this link from Money magazine about home renovation that I think is oddly apt.












I hope that works.
Have you found a door yet? I was looking on the Marvins site and saw this one http://www.marvin.com/images/Products/Entry%20Doors/Craftsman%20Collection/3403_LO_lg.jpg
It has 6 over 6 lights at the top which would complement your windows on the other sides of the house. You should check it out and perhaps you can get a deal with the windows?
Thanks for that suggestion... I'm going to look into that for sure. Might work better $$ wise than the one our architect drew for us that has almost twice as many lites, but needs to be custom made, aka WAY TOO EXPENSIVE. Why is that always the case??
