Office Space with a Side Order of Clutter

Filed under: Check-it-out, Family, Writing, Writing Style

Back in September I told you that we were renovating our office (the hubby and I share.) If you don’t remember what the space looked like, I’ll refresh your memory…

Since then, I’ve been working to find a place for everything so I could take a few nice, uncluttered pictures for you. Yeah, that’s never going to happen. If Pig Pen from Charlie Brown has a little cloud of dust that follows him, then it’s fair to say that I have a little pile of clutter. I’d be naked without it. Plus–I try–I really do. So, I’ve pretty much got it down to one little pile of “stuff” in the corner and I’m just going to get that picture out of the way first so we can move on to all the stuff that looks really, really nice and almost neat. *deep breath*

Phew! I feel better now that that’s over. 😮 Some day there will be a cozy chair in that corner for reading. Just use your imagination. LOL!

This is my hubby’s pristine side of the room. Can you see why he gets annoyed with me? Oh, and those couple piles of paper? I did that while he was at work today when I was trying to print out the Christmas card letter. Sorry!

See, not so bad. I’ve got at least one cat at all times and honestly the rest in motivational, inspirational. I’m surrounded by stuff I love.

                                                                           Kim,

Congratulations!!! Grandma always said you were a dreamer. Lots of people just dream

and never do anything about it. Not you. When the time was right you took a

huge leap, sprouted wings and landed safely in your dreams. You were blessed with such a 

wonderful talent and I am so proud of you. I’m sure Daddy is busting his buttons telling everyone 

how proud he is of his “beautiful baby!”

You are always in my heart.

Mom

See, who cares about that one messy corner when I’ve got all this LOL! What’s your favorite trinket sitting in your office or writing space? How does it inspire you? Any tips for making that last pile disappear?
