I looked down at the 12 year old, tobacco stained, dusty, once white $4 curtain that had miraculously made the cut in the move. The once temporary coverings, that the $4 cheap plastic blinds were now replacing. I smiled up at his proud, self satisfied face on the ladder.
"Of course babe, totally only temporary".
