How can taking care of such a tiny area take so long? It seems as if I’ve spent an inordinate amount of time fixing up the shelving in this bedroom closet. This all started a few weeks ago, as we unexpectedly found ourselves with so much free time on our hands. So, after some debate and hardly any planning, we decided that this was as good a time as any to tackle the long overdue ...
