Windows, Womens Tires and Holy Men

Good friend of mine was heading out of Houston up to the Dallas Fort Worth area today. She happen to mention the tires on her SUV might need attention. How to do I know she asked? We'll being a guy I copied and pasted the 3 step Penny tire evaluation whereas she realized that the two left side tires were in dire need of replacement. Naturally they will get replaceded, Right after this trip ...Yeah Right!

Women and their tires I pronounced!

There should be a rule...like get a free set of tires for every fourth or forteenth pair of shoes! Seriously, why to you Gals wait so long to check the tires.

NOW, before you assume what you WILL assume. I must admit. An hour later I texted and inquired as to how large the hole in a mans sock can be before it is a liabilty. Yeah! answer was "any hole too big". Same for sock, same for head.

Ladies, your not any different than we are. Men, I mean!.....just as head strong, right and totally justified.

Unlike a sock with holes. Wood and faux wood blinds are available in routeless options. Routeless is the option that eliminates the tiny holes in each slat, be it real wood or faux. Routeless reduces a little more light and makes a little cleaner look to your window blind. Check out routeless 2 1/2" blinds and faux blinds with the routeless option.

As for my lady friend? Well, I thought she liked Holy men, but apparently not the ones with holes in their socks. Or maybe, she just is stranded with bad tires. Have not heard. Pray for her.

Thanks Ya'll, Have a great March Weekend!
Blessings,

Who Let The Dog's Out!!!!!

Or should I say ....Who let the dogs stay In?

Guys and Gals.

I love the pooches much as anyone, but I gotta tell ya. One of our most common calls for blinds and shades failure is due to the familiy pet.

When my son was young we had a great beauty we called Christy. Short for Christmas Surprise. Christy was a young black and white Dalmation pup. One Blue one Black eye. We understood she would never be a show dog but her pup's might. Talk about a great Dog! Oh!!! Christy was balistic....Sooo much the fit lean machine that one will see in the shows. Sooo, much the apple of my son's eye. Yet, Christy, like many was curios, mischievious and just plain O'l wanted to be in the middle of things.

My point being...............Pets can be among the number 1 reason for blind and or shade failure. Oh, they never mean it and we can never really blame them, but !!! When we go away for the weekend or that Great Vacation...they feel sooo alone and even though we have someone come over to feed them and play with them....We'll....it is just not the same. The family pet wants the Family.

Okay, here's the deal. No one can warranty your blinds against pet destruction.

I can offer some thoughts.

Routeless blinds, will allow for the removal of each slat and replacement slat by slat. Still! If the one in question devours the strings...of said blind or shade...well...it's History.

My best advice..........Love um....take um to a friends or to an animal spa for those those short trips.

GEES...........we can't get upset with UM! We just Love Um Too Much!

Yet...we love our window treatments too!

Love and or leave Um...your wood blinds and shades will tell.

They don't mean it....Sooo, should you find your blinds and shades detroyed......we offer replacements. Be sure to get new color samples for fresh a compararison to the old existing color or to the wall color you now have.

It's tough!, but bite the bullet and forgive the family cat or dog. Were here and you can always replace the window fashion, but who can replace the Kid's favorite Pet?

God Bless You, Have The most Wonderful Week.
