it seemed like a good idea, originally uploaded by dfb.

I bought this wardrobe the day before my mom arrived for a two week visit. The hope was, and still is, to help organize our small apartment by helping to find a home for all the loose items hanging about such as the stroller and vacuum cleaner. It isn’t as unsightly as you see here (it has doors and a couple of shelves, not pictured) but is dwarfs the door.

It did not seem so big when we measured it all out. Unfortunately, it overwhelmed the entrance and clearly was a mistake next to the door.

My mistake forced us to rearrange the whole apartment while my mom was here. Sorry Mom. At least she got to spend time with the baby, albeit couped up indoors.
