She's breaking up!

Sometimes surprises are good. Sometimes not. I was walking past the sliding glass doors to our patio when I noticed a lot of broken glass. The first thought was "oh crap, someone has broken in!" It turns out that we had a defective glass panel, and it decided to shatter into lots and lots of tiny pieces.



It might be hard to tell, but there was enough broken glass to fill an entire 5 gallon paint bucket. My guess is that we will be cleaning up tiny glass particles for the next month.



The good news is that there were 3 pieces of glass, and only one broke. This means that we don't have any holes in the house for hot air to come in or cats to escape. Just a mess and some repair work to have done.

It's always something.
