A beautiful gift

I won this beautiful gift from Sandra and was thrilled to receive it all the way from Australia! Thanks again Sandra!




My husband M decided it was time to replace the windows and doors in our house, so we have been getting estimates from various vendors. It's a tiresome process but we finally found a company we like, and will go ahead with them. One of the last men to come to the house stayed for 4 1/2 hours and we really liked him. But the next day, a guy came for about an hour and we knew we had to select his company. It was a business decision as opposed to a popularity contest.

All the way from Australia! That is fun.

It's certainly not a popularity contest when you need to choose the right person for the job.
