I recently had a week where I had a Management presentation of a paper (Tuesday), Marketing group paper and presentation (Wednesday), and a Finance mid-term (Thursday) all in one week. PLUS a lectureship at work which lasted three days. Guess which days? Yep- Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
So what do I decide to do on the Saturday before this awful week?
Yep, you guessed it. I reorganized my buffet! Procrastinate much?
What can I say, I work better under pressure.
Our buffet holds all my cookbooks, our junk drawers, fine china and my morning drawer which includes my hair dryer, makeup bag, mirror and flat iron. (I get ready in the dining room so I don't wake up Noel with my hair dryer.) Hey- when you live in a little apartment you do what works and combine things like junk and fine china. Don't judge.
Here are the cabinets on each side:
And here are the three drawers:
Junk, junk and more junk. I even found a disposable camera from 2007. Who knows what's on it?!
Jasper decided he would help too. I hope his little tail knocked some dust out of that cabinet.
Here are the beautiful after pics- side by side with the before pics for comparison:
The left cabinet holds my cookbook collection and a Longaberger basket that holds all of my coupons (thanks to my bro and sis-in law for that Christmas gift!) and extra recipe cards, etc are neatly stacked next to it.
The right cabinet didn't change a bit but did get a good dusting so I won't bore you with that.
Here are a few pics of the drawers:
Also, on top of the buffet, a little plate holds out keys and don'tforgetthisasyougooutthedoor stuff. I make Noel's lunch most days and leave it in the fridge for him. He forgets it sometimes so I try to put a sticky note above the doorknob to remind him as he goes out the door. I hide my sticky note under our plate so I can just re-use it. I love post-its. Seriously- love. :)
I don't know about you but I can breath better when I'm organized. You?
No?! Just me?
Ummm...k.
