I sidled up to my husband and whispered provocatively in his ear, “Honey, how about you and me getting our crazy on?†He nodded with interest. “Okay,†I continued, “I’ll start by washing the inside windows and then I’ll catch up with you as you wash the outside windows.†His interest shrank like cold water applied to certain favorite male anatomical parts.
Each fall I start my litany of chore requests before the snow falls. Window and screen washing are on the top of the list because I want to actually see what little Minnesota daylight we do get in the winter months.
My husband knows the ladder dragging, bucket balancing, chore is coming, but puts it off as long as possible.
On Saturday we did the deed. Yep. THE deed. As with most things in our life, we approach window washing from very different directions. I’m a squirt-wipe-squeegee person, and my husband is a squirt -wipe- rag person. I hold my tongue as he dangles from a crooked ladder (“I’ll be fine!â€), and he holds his tongue as I point out missed smudges (a little to the left, more, more. Okay, now it’s worse.). It’s a dance, and one in which I couldn’t ask for a better partner.
This morning the sun barely made a visit, but I grinned as I noted the clean windows. I know it won’t last…after all, grit happens…but for now it is the best part of my day.

I do consider all the ideas you have presented in your post. They’re really convincing and will definitely work. Nonetheless, the posts are very short for newbies. Could you please lengthen them a little from next time? Thank you for the post.

Hi!
It’s funny, but some people say my posts are too long, and others too short. I try to do one “longish” one and one shorter one each week as a compromise. I really appreciate your response. Please come by again.
🙂 Gail
