And secondly (and more importantly), we have a private eye at home (hint: his initials are DKJ) who have strict standards about curtain opacity. All curtains in the Jeng household must pass the "none see-through" test. Said private eye will perform this test to ensure it meets this level of quality. So you can imagine my relief when he gave it the green light. I felt like I survived an audit. Phew. :)
And the best part was, we woke up to a room filled with light this morning! I am so used to waking up to a dark room that this was a nice surprise for me.
