I had new windows installed in my apartment today. Hopefully this will positively affect my heating bills this winter! The guys who did the installation were nice, and cleared out for a bit while I had a phone interview. Hopefully the interview went well; I really can't ever tell. It always seems to go well, but then I don't hear back, and don't get any feedback. This one was through an agency, so maybe I'll get some feedback through them. I have hopes for this one, because it's a marketing position and not sales, and that's what I'd really like to be doing. It would be a good entry into marketing, which is hard to break into.

Anyhoo. My apartment is small, and my furniture was scattered all over the place, so I walked up to the park while they finished up. I saw a couple of turtles sunning themselves on a log sticking out of the river, and downstream I watched a swan harass some geese. He reminded me so much of our Mr Prissy near my old job; he swam by them purposefully, with his wings arched, then launched into an attack.

Silly beasts. The guys finished up soon after I got back, and moved on to the rest of the house (there are three apartments). I do notice the difference; I can't feel a draft, which I often did before. So yay, new windows, and fun swan pix. Not bad for a Thursday.

New windows are good! We noticed a big difference when we got our front door replaced with one with double glazed glass and also had a new downstairs window. It's not just that the rooms heat up quicker and stay warm longer, but as you say, no draughts!

I can definitely feel the difference.
