Hi Sidestep, I see you're still working outdoors quite a bit--does this mean your weather hasn't been too hot? We've been very fortunate because although we've had some hot days, we've had cool ones in between, which makes it possible to cool off my apartment and makes it bearable. Our first long stretch of hot every day looks like it'll start at the end of this week.  Although I don't think our "hot" is as hot as yours, since I think you mentioned lizards in one of your posts! We're not hot enough to have lizards here...  If you're able to get the animal resistant screen, I'd be interest to know what it's like. I used to work at a cat shelter, and many, many years ago I remember I was in the room when our director called a window company complaining about how the cats in the shelter were tearing up the screens, and the guy on the other end of the phone yelled loud enough for me to hear "screens are supposed to keep bugs out, they're not supposed to keep cats in!!!" Diane

 Hi Diane, thanks for stopping by! Yes, the horrendous heat is now here, so more of my attention needs to be turned to the inside. While I haven't yet jumped on the animal resistant screen, I definitely now need to make it a main focus. Thanks for the reminder. Due to the neighbor's outside cat bothering mine, my procrastination on getting the pricy special screen has caused the original screen to rip further. This has even caused the original frame to bend, so I'm hoping it will still be functional enough to use. Part of the procrastination is due to the fact that this large window size will require ordering & this size is only available in black at Home Depot. Amazon carries it in gray for a ridiculous postal fee. Since it won't match my other screens, I'm afraid the black would stand out & bother me even though it would have better solar reduction properties. Ponder, ponder, ponder but I need to POUNCE soon!
