What a Pane! (hahaha I'm so clever!)

Yesterday it was really windy.  At some point in the afternoon I went into the kitchen and noticed dirt all over the stove and counter.  There's a really strange glass window above the stove/kitchen sink.  I figured that the wind had blown so much against that window that a lot of dirt had come through the cracks and settled onto my stove.  The building we live in is 100+ years old so anything is possible, right?

Well it wasn't until Connor got home and I was telling him about the dirt everywhere that he noticed that one of the window panes was actually missing.  The wind had blown it out.  That explains all the dirt, and it makes more sense than my previous theory.  Connor went outside to look at the damage, and amazingly the glass was still in one piece!  So he caulked it back into place, and we sterilized the kitchen.  (It needed a good cleaning anyway.)


It's kind of a blurry picture, but you can see the broken pane at the bottom left of the window.  There's dirt all over, but it's hard to see.  (I had already cleaned up some of it.)  Our poor kitchen.  

Before we moved in one of the radiator pipes broke in our kitchen and flooded the chapel below us.  (We live above a funeral home.  There's a chapel.)  They had to rip out all of our counters, and they didn't do the greatest job putting everything back together.  Hence the backwash, or lack thereof.  But, hey, it's free and you can't beat that!

  1. What funeral home do you live above? Did you know Vicky and Serge lived in above a funeral home in SLC when they were newlyweds? What are the chances?
