amyscabinets1 lucky bounty

i made 2 goals for this year, #1 is to get out more, # 2 is to attempt to be more organized and professional. so far, i have made no progress in getting out more, though there are signs of hope. yesterday, i made the first step of progress in getting organized! luckily i got in contact with an architect who had some used filed cabinets he was trying to get rid of for cheap. when i went to his house there were ALOT more than i expected and he gave me ALL of them. they had been stored outside for along time and a bit wet from rain and some were also full of blue prints from his old projects. i had to remove his blue prints and stack them in his garage, they were damp but the paper was amazingly resilient. i had no way to get the cabinets home but luckily my dad was off and has a huge trailer and really wanted help, otherwise i would have only been able to take one. the whole scene was kind of exaggerated and surreal to me… the sky was blazing from a sunset and my dad and dylan were loading up all these massive cabinets while i was petting the architect’s st bernard. when i woke up this morning i had to go into the garage to make sure i wasn’t dreaming it all last night.. and yes it was real, i have many cabinets now, and alot of organizing to do :)
