  1. I own the only house in the entire whole universe that has absolutely NO FREAKING WAY to access and repair the sash weights.  Access panel?  No.  Take off interior trim to reveal cavity?  No.  Cut my own access panel in the frame?  No.  One whole day wasted.  Unable to complete the project the way I want to which makes me pouty and grumpy and demotivated.
  2. This window thing is going to take me waaaaay longer than I thought.
  3. Mocha peanut butter makes some damn tasty cookies, as some of you will soon discover.

I love you.  Seriously.  Love you.

I don't know what sash weights are, but if I did, I'm sure I would sympathize.  :)

About 15 years ago we bought high-tech, new-fangled double-pane windows with a UV filter between the panes. All metal, sashes, & frames were covered with white plastic to protect it.  (a brilliant theory) The UV filter was glorious, but you know what the plastic did; it buckled, the windows leaked and we had to replace the replacement windows with hurricane-proof windows.  (and they're so expensive we've still got 3 windows & 2 sliding glass doors before we can call it done)  Leaky roofs, drain fields, and cranky windows seem to be recurring themes in my life.  My sympathies!
