Our master bathroom is on the top floor of our home. The one window inside of it is lodged into the slant of its steep angled ceiling. After deep cleaning the shower on Monday, I opened that window all the way up to allow some fresh air inside to help ventilate the room. Upon opening, [...]

Last-Minute New Year’s Getaway
