Re: What is something unexpected that happened to you?

[(Anonymous)]

It's my first winter in my new house and the polar vortex taught me that my windows are pretty crap (ice on the inside!). I figured after they thawed and dryed I would put plastic over them, but realized there was no way to put it on over the blinds without removing not only the blinds, but the brackets that hold them (the top part sticks out too far and I'm afraid it would break the plastic) and there's no effective way to put plastic under the blinds. I figure it's not practical to remove the brackets unless I want to give up on shades completely since unscrewing them in the winter and screwing them back in come spring would result in an increasingly weaker hold. I'm putting up curtains on the windows in the coldest rooms and could put up plastic in the bathroom where there's no blinds, and then maybe try seasonal caulk next year.

My mom talked me down from a panic saying, "Well, it's not -20 that often. You get ice on your windows for a couple of days every 5 years but not the rest if the time then you are probably fine."

At least my house isn't too dry, I guess? (The unexpected consequence of owning an aquatic reptile.)

If you can, get them replaced when it is affordable. You will save so much on heating and cooling. You can also get window wrapping kits from hardware stores.

The window wrapping is what I wanted to do, but the tops of the blinds stick out too far.
