OK, so on second thought I should probably explain a little bit about that "Desolate Bathroom." First, it was the home's previous owner's litter box; the linoleum floor needs to be replaced (not to mention the wallpaper border of cats wearing cowboy hats, blech!) Second, it has no windows, and no air duct vents - it is literally a box with a door. We need to reseal where the walls hit the floor of the garage - it leaks air like crazy; it's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. If you try to sit on that toilet in the winter, well, let's just say the toilet is the perfect candidate for a heated seat. Third, it is our half bath (as in, 2 and-a-half bathrooms); we don't really have a need for it, and it is located all the way downstairs. Two walls are shared with the garage, one and a half to the exterior of our home, and a half of one wall to the play room (it's mostly a door.) The bathroom almost seems as a bad afterthought, and we would've bought the home even if this half-bath didn't exist. Why haven't we gutted it (maybe not quite the terminology one should use while discussing a bathroom) you say? Because we got lazy. Oh yeah, and because we have been slowly but surely fixing up everything else in the house. It has been on the very bottom of our list. But now that our kitchen is complete, it is time to start thinking about that desolate bathroom. I still don't know what to do about the no window/no air duct thing, but here is my idea: turn it into Brent's office, replete with good reading material! That's for you, Noah, hahahahaha!
