Preparing Your House For Winter

Not included in How to Prepare Your Home for Winter is replacing your 30 year old windows that don’t work much better than wire-mesh. We had our first snow storm yesterday, and besides getting the snowshoes out for my trek to work and putting the polar bear traps out (they go hunting for frozen humans), I arranged to get all the windows (14) in my house replaced, in addition to putting a sub-floor into one room and some other minor renovations. I recently renegotiated my mortgage, getting a bigger one to pay off some debts and have some money for renovations. That’s right, I borrowed money to pay off money.
