That moment I realized I could use a tape measure to check window squareness
I was measuring windows for blinds in my new house last weekend and kept getting confused about whether the frame was square. Then my dad mentioned you can just compare the diagonal measurements, and if they match, it's square. Has anyone else found simple tricks like this that save a ton of headache when picking window treatments?

My husband still measures twice after putting up crooked shelves forty years ago.

Friend of mine tried to hang a heavy mirror once. Measured once, nailed it up, and it was tilted so bad one corner touched the ceiling fan. @juliam40 your husband's got the right idea. Some lessons you just don't unlearn after 40 years of crooked shelves. At least now he can brag about being able to spot a level line from across the room.
