I forgot to mention something pretty interesting. H grew up in a cramped, tiny house. They had an attic that was converted into an apartment. H has always needed big rooms and space; always hating small rooms.
His new place? Small rooms. The whole space is pretty small. And there's a room in an attic sort of area.
I found that interesting.
