noun
a room, storage area, or the like within a sloping roof; attic; garret
When we moved into our house six and a half years ago, we gave little thought to the "extra room" above our garage, other than to use it as storage. And use it we did. We stuffed it full of old yearbooks, unused toys, forgotten memorabilia, and off-season decorations. It was not a termperature-controlled room, so in the summers it was an oven, and in the winters an ice chest. Not exactly the type of place you'd want to spend much time in.
But it is now! My husand is a truly talented man and has transformed the yucky, uninviting space into something beautiful and cozy. And USEABLE! We have a new ceiling, new insulation, new paint, and new shelving. We even have a new futon! It is the PERFECT space for our new adventures in homeschooling.
Lesson Learned:
My husband is amazing. Okay, this isn't really a "lesson" per se, but it's certainly been a good reminder of all the things I love about him.
