Getting Organized

After living in the dorms for my freshman year in college, we bought a condo which is practically on campus (attached to a University parking garage). We looked at so many places around Columbia, and couldn't find the right spot. Then we looked at Senate Plaza and found a great two bedroom condo that was all white walls carpet and a really outdated kitchen. During the summer before I moved in, we came up and worked to renovate it. Tour out the closed in kitchen and opened it up to the living room adding a bar sitting area. With a coat of paint and new floors, it was ready to live in. But you know how there are those projects that you mean to do, never get around too? Well, I have great closets, but they only had one rack across the top, but the rest of the closet was wasted space. So with an idea in mind I headed to Lowes to look for closeting materials and got the shelving and mounting supplies and headed back to my condo to start installing. I did get a little offended when the guy at Lowes asked me if I owned a drill. Of course I own a drill!!!

Back at the condo it ended up being simpler than I thought to install and start getting everything organized and set into place. So the closets are done finally after three years on the to do list.
