Busy at work this week.
Down time at work has been spent researching how CC and I are going to keep our condo warm this winter. Problems are the large (8 by 3) foot windows that flank two sides of our place. And since we sort of have southern exposure on those same two sides, I've always wondered if there wasn't a way to utilize solar something...
Thank you internet - here it is!

Looks like there are certain solar curtains that will warm up in the sunlight. We'll see. Considering that our heating bill more than doubles in the winter (we have electric heat), it will likely be a worthwhile investment.
Called Pottery Barn Kids this afternoon and unsubscribed to their catalog (unsure how I ever got on that list...). Another one of my new projects is calling each retailer that sends us a catalog. Part of our new life entails less time and money spent consuming. Less shopping will help. And it has finally (!) dawned on me that flipping through catalogs makes me want to replace/"upgrade" too many things at home.
