…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!

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!)
