LD's Attic, July 19, 2009.
Sorry about the lousy pictures in this pre-remodeling series. I snapped them in a great rush of enthusiasm to dig into these remodeling projects.
The overhead sleeping loft in my Lazy Daze quickly became an attic junk room
The junk has to go - there's no room in this new "Lazy Daze Light" program for junk. I've been living here long enough now to know the sleeping loft will never be my bedroom. I tore out the queen size mattress and little storage box at the head of the bed. And the lift-up "floor" over the cab too.
Wait 'til you see how this area is being transformed. Seeing that area opened up gave me ideas.

Words Get in the Way
Research shows that language suppresses visual memory, This is called verbal overshadowing and is a well-established phenomenon .... For example, in one study people watched a short videotape of a bank robbery, then spent twenty minutes doing something unrelated. Then one group spent five minutes writing down everything they could remember about the bank robber's face, while the other group did an unrelated task.
