    Was anyone else nervous for Sophia? I was yelling no, don't go to top step and then when she was balancing on one leg. Only our dear Sophia, getting things done!!!

    I wouldn't have been able to watch the window washing if this was LIVE! The way you were leaning to reach the outside panes had me shaking in my boots! I used to sit on the 2nd floor window sills to wash my grandma's windows when I was young and stupid. Your hostas are STUNNING! In fact your entire backyard is beautiful. And that new lamp for your office is AMAZING and lastly, yes, I would love a video on rewiring lamps.

    Hubby’s bonus room upstairs has 3 windows which never been. Leaned on outside. How??? I don’t have double hung windows. I suppose I could use the long pole we bought to paint the house to each up high with a mop head on it or something ???

    Hi Sophia , I have a similar situation with my second story windows and the solution I found to work for it was to use my spin mop to clean the top window. I stick the mop out and up toward the window and mop it 😂 My neighbors probably think I’m crazy but it works.

    Worth twice a year to have a company come out and clean all outside windows. I don't have tilting windows I just clean inside. That was VERY dangerous you leaning out like that the window could have given way if you had slipped. Very pretty lamp never seen one like that before, it's not a cheap lamp going for nearly £200 on ebay .
