Birthday Wishes revisited

My Birthday Wishes friend, Leah, is in need of prayers.

Her father passed away unexpectedly Sunday evening.

I never met her father in person but felt as though I knew him just the same through stories she would tell of him and growing up in a house full of love, fun, good times and challenging times.

May God’s loving touch be with you, Leah, and your mother, Patsy, and siblings: Jessica, Rachel, TC, and Robert as you deal with your loss.

Peace be with you.

I accidentally changed the look of my blog when I was trying out new themes and backgrounds.  I will be working on getting all the pages, links, buttons, etc. back.  Hopefully I remember what they all were!

Or maybe I’ll just refresh the blog with a whole new look!

A clearer view

I got shut off from the outside world on Monday.

Window-12

It was just a temporary situation as two men came Wednesday to remove the broken glass.

Window-13

I was surprised that they didn’t wear eye protection or gloves as they dismantled the glass shards.  I know I wouldn’t be handling anything like that without something covering my eyes or hands.  They didn’t have any idea why the glass broke either.  Settling building?  Temperature change?  My shoe?

Window-14

The broken glass looked like diamonds.

When they finished removing all the glass, they taped over the edge to keep any remaining glass bits from falling out.

Window-15

They said it will be more like 4-6 weeks for a replacement.

Window-16

At least I can see outside again.

Bulging

When I got to work today, the crackled glass was beginning to bulge.  Not a good sign.

The maintenance man came over and covered it with cardboard.

Word is that it will take 3-4 weeks to get the window replaced.

Seriously?  3-4 weeks?

Seems like everything in this building takes 3-4 weeks to get repaired.  According to the weather alarmists forecasters, we could have snow in 3-4 weeks.

At least the outer window pane is still intact.  For now.
