I Tried To Keep My House Secret — Marriage Took A Wild Turn

Fresh Sheets And Small Touches

I washed the sheets on a hot cycle and ran them through an extra rinse to remove any detergent residue.
I placed a glass water carafe on the nightstand alongside two tumblers, and a small basket held hand lotion, earplugs, and a phone charger for convenience. Mark adjusted the curtains to block the streetlight and tested the blinds for smooth operation. By the time we finished, the guest room looked inviting, tidy, and uncluttered, with thoughtful touches that made it feel welcoming.
The duvet air-dried on the line, while I fluffed pillows and checked that the seams and zippers were intact.
