Thanks for the suggestion about the free-standing wardrobe. That would definitely help the clothing storage situation. My daughter has a LOT of clothes, but she’s very good at shopping the Kohl’s clearance rack and using a 15-30% off coupon on top of that. She became a very savvy shopper once I made her responsible for creating her clothing budget (with a little parental input) when she started high school.

We don’t want to raise my daughter’s bed too far off the ground. She did that her freshman year in Ridgecrest South and actually fell out of the bed at least once. (Yes, she apparently inherited my klutziness.) :)

I just feel sorry for all the poor freshmen who are being put in rooms with upperclassmen who thought they had been assured a single room. Your first time away at college should be a fun, exciting experience. No freshman should have to worry that their roommate will give them a rough time for something that’s beyond their control.

I really do hope they can work things out before move-in days so everyone can move right in to a single room or a room that was designed to serve as a double. I want all these incoming freshmen girls to get their year off to as wonderful a start as Abby was able to her freshman year.
