I've taken a tip from
Theresa on how to keep myself accountable using my blog. I'll make a post or two every Thursday about what I've completed and what project I plan for the next week. So here are the pictures of a rather clean and organized office and I will post later tonight on what I have planned for next week's project.
Save for the one broken remnant of the bed that hasn't quite made it to the dumpster yet, and will have to wait until the parking lot is less icy, the office is done!
You can probably tell from the pictures that we're big Apple computer geeks, and have a certain affinity to outdated technology. For those of you keeping count at home that's six computers and two typewriters in the office, and each one is perfectly functional.
There may be just two people in this house, but there are three desks in our office. (And yes, that's one of my photo lamps just hanging off the shelf there) The dark wood one is our most recent acquisition and when we move into a house (one day) the secretary's desk will go in the living room and the large corner desk will make its own way to Goodwill, but for now we make good use of every piece of furniture in the room.
The two bookshelves were the first pieces of furniture that my parents owned when they started out together. There is a third shelf that my father recently sanded and stained that now sits in their den.
It may look a little chaotic on the shelves, but things are certainly easier to find than they used to be. Oh, and that little pink traincase on the bottom shelf is the most recent addition to my suitcase collection, a gift from my dear friend
Jennie.
