extreme makeover desk edition

a few weeks ago i came to the realization that my current "office" situation was just not working for me. the desk was still stuffed with my brother's books and other things from when he was in high school. all of my piano business things were in piles all over the floor. the power strip was tangled up with every electrical cord i own. just a mess.

so.

on an impulse i ordered a file cabinet and some folders online.

the file cabinet and folders came...and sat outside my room for 2 weeks. i couldn't decide where to put it and i didn't have the energy to see things get worse before they would (hopefully) get better.

and so today became the day. i had no plans. no obligations. just an increasingly long to-do list mostly involving my disaster of a room.

and so i fought...

and i conquered.

i packed a bunch of my brother's things away and made room for my own in the drawers and cupboards.

then made sure all the electrical stuff was put nicely away.

and then the filing cabinet. soooo wonderful!!! top drawer is all my personal accounts (with the heavy firebox in the back) and the bottom drawer is all my piano business resources - books and worksheets all filed according to category. i am SO proud of myself haha!!!

i really do feel so much better ;)
