Baby, it’s cold outside…

…so we’re experimenting with some homemade insulation for our windows.  I’ve done one of the two windows in the kitchen so far.  We only bought a small package of bubble wrap, so we could see how well it worked.  When we can, we’ll pick up a larger package and do the other windows in the house:  it took approximately 20′ of 12″ wide bubble wrap to do the one window.

Doing the one window took just a few minutes:  warm water on a sponge, wipe the inside of the window, leaving it just a little wet.  Cut bubble wrap to fit, and press evenly onto the surface of the window.  Adjust quickly to fit well.  I removed one of them to reposition with no problems.   Last year we covered the windows in quilts and heavy fabric; the bubble wrap allows us to have some light in the room while also insulating!

Pentago

While at target picking up some necessities this weekend, Marc and I saw this nifty looking game: Pentago. This looks like a pretty neat, and simple, two player game.  It evidently comes in a four player version as well.  The display at Target was well done – a great way to demonstrate the game.  If you’re in Target, it’s worth a look!

And finally, I’ve been listening to free webinars online at work lately – but my speakers for some reason don’t work with the webinar program.  As a result, I’ve been dialing in and listening on my cell phone.  Yes, that’s my phone rubber-banded to my head.  I’m thinking maybe I need a new bluetooth devise that’s compatible with my LG Neon.  Ha ha!  I do pull my office door closed so no one sees me looking so silly at work.  (Of course, then I post the photo online, go figure!)
