Sylvia has painted the window trim (first coat). This morning, I was greeted by this scene:
The morning sun was bright. Alas, it soon had donned a light cloak thus obscuring the view thereof.

I broke another spring in the seat of my recliner. It was the second time that had happened. I went to amazon.com, reviewed previous purchases, found the replacement spring and ordered another of the same.
Yesterday, with much frustration and rescue help from Sylvia, we replaced the spring. In the process we also readjusted the first replacement spring.
In the evening, I sat in the restored recliner relaxing and enjoying The Hobbit – Battle of The Five Armies on DVD. As the action was getting hot I heard, “SPROING!” I was let down–literally let down. The readjusted spring had slipped loose. That will be my project for this afternoon.
Replacing the spring sounds like a dangerous job. Be careful. Your new windows look like they need some spring on the outside.
There is more hard pulling and pushing than danger. With four hands, it works much better. This being the second time, I discovered how to remove the seat from the chair, which made things much, much more accessible.
I’ll wait for spring until the season. If we have it now, that would not be good. You’ll remember it wasn’t that long ago when that happened.
Maybe the beautiful view through the new window compensate for the sprung spring problem.
I believe it does. It took less than a minute to remedy the sprung spring. We are hoping for years of improved views from the windows.
Has spring sprung?
Yes, it has. In the southern hemisphere.
Ha! We’ve each had our own mechanical failures this week.
Unfortunately, yours left you shoveling snow out of a long driveway. I think we’ll both recover . . . eventually. :surrender:
