bed took
up lots of space and we had no where to
sit when watching tv, and for the amount of time he is home or we have guests it will suffice for sleeping on... I am
in the process of working on the closet as it is still stuffed with things that need to find a home
in the house, and I am

up valuable space... So this is my project for the fall, and I hopefully will have it done by Xmas!!
