The sometimes amusing and boring life of being parents.

Solar Screens

As I mentioned in the last post, we ordered solar screens. They were installed today. So far, we are VERY pleased. We could tell a difference immediately. It does make the inside seem a little darker, but I think that's the point. It does still let sun in for the cats. So, they should be happy. We got a cold front today, so we were a little disappointed that it isn't going to be 105 tomorrow!! It's only supposed to be 92. I still think we will be able to tell a difference. The only negative thing is that they cracked a window. It seems like this house is just doomed. One thing always leads to another. Jeff is going to call tomorrow and let them know. I'm not surprised that one broke. We knew it was a possibility. I'm sure they will fix it, but it's just yet another contractor to deal with!! Oh well. So, here are the pics...

They did the custom grid work where we had grids. We only had grids on the front portion of the house.





They also did a door cover for the back door.



You can't see in during the day, but at night if you have the lights on you will be able to see in. So, it should add a lot of privacy. Like I said, we are very pleased.
