Acting like a crazy woman with my crazy DH

On Tuesday, my coworker and I are talking about cleaning/organizing our home...and I said I don't have enough storage and my family has so much stuff we want, but can't find a place to store. So, Tuesday night DH and I are talking and I suggest that we convert part of "his" garage/work area to a recreation room and storage. At first he wasn't too sure, we built the room to be a home for his bikes and such....but they got sold long ago. He went downstairs and took a look and realized with all the kids bikes and kids stuff there, it wasn't a man's garage anyway

So, we were up on Tuesday talking about what we would do (my kids haven't been taking naps at the sitters and have been sleeping early). On Wednesday I mention I may go to Lowes to look at some stuff...well, he is so excited he picked me up for lunch and we looked around. Then, he went back home and took measurements for me and then came back to town and we picked up a ton of stuff and last night stayed up to almost midnight cleaning out the garage. He is going to power wash it today and then work on framing some doors....my coworker thinks we are nuts....she was like, "how do you have the energy"
I am so happy though, the walls are already finished, so we are going to add a couple doors to close off the area and make a storage area for ME

under the stairs and then lay down some flooring and assembly our cabenits and then we will have a cool hangout for DH and his friends and for the kids. I am going to put my luggage, decorations, papers, kid's projects, emergency supplies, old books, etc. under the stairs and I will have space again upstairs and won't be afraid for my life when I open closets anymore
