Just sitting here blogging

fun monday

I was happy when Gattina jumped in and said she would host the next Fun Monday because I was starting to panic, worrying about who was going to host and if I should just maybe go off on my own and start posting a "Macro Monday" like I have thought about doing.  Then, she goes and asks us something so revealing that I still almost didn't sign up.

By Sunday, I am sitting here thinking, 'Wow, where did the weekend go?' and 'What the heck, I'll reveal what a disorganized mess I am.'  Honestly, I blog from many, many places.  My husband travels with his job and I often go with him.  So I might be blogging from a motel in Door County or a Starbucks in Lake Geneva, I might be offline preparing a post or photos while sitting in the car while hubs is in a plant.  Sometimes, I prepare a written post on the PDA while waiting for him.

Often I sit in bed and blog, or if I really need some place to concentrate I move to a chair in the yard.  The yard is great place to think, communing with nature while my wheels turn.  But there is another place I blog and read blogs and scrapbook and make cards and . . .

my desk



So there it is, in all its glory, my desk!  I've made a few cards this week and trusted that you wanted my desk as it set today, no preparing it, scrubbing it down and cleaning it off.  Yes, my laptop does still fit on it.

  2. I've got to say that I'm IMPRESSED with how tidy your desk is. Really. You could never know how impressive that is unless you've seen mine, but TRUST ME!

  3. Hehe! You are so going to think I cleaned my desk for Fun Monday, and it is soooo not true! i am totally anal and only can think when everything is in its place. That, and i was having company over, so i scrubbed the whole house! Loved the little glimpse into your "space."

  4. I just discovered your email and added you to the list ! Isn't it interesting to see where we blog ? I too move into the garden when the weather is nice. Laptops are a great invention you can blog everywhere even sitting on a tree !

  5. Your desk looks like it sees many creative moments. I think that's far more important than having a very clean desk.
    And I can just see you sitting in the yard, charming the birds while you post!

  10. I don't see a mess...it looks pretty darned organized if you ask me! But you didn't ask me. Okay, okay --so I'm tellin' ya, it DOES look organized. And I bet you know just where everything is. I so envy bloggers who have the luxury of a laptop.

    My Fun Monday Blogging Area is posted now if you'd like to take a gander.....stop by. Have a great day.

  11. I like uncluttered work spaces. Funny how different people thrive in different environments, be they inside or out. Macro Monday sounds like a great idea...might have to play along one day once I get a macro lens :-)

  12. Oh, you are so lucky to be able to blog from so many places like that! I don't have a laptop, so no outdoors for me. It's either at my desk at home or...sometimes from my desk at work (I am so going to be busted one of these days). And your desk isn't very messy at all!

  16. I like the empty Starbucks in the corner. It's nice that you showed the true desk, and not the cleaned up version. I was not so brave.

  17. I didn't dare to show my messy study and opt for the neater Entertainment Room. :P You are so savvy with gadgets. I ought to learn how to use the PDA and blog wherever I go.

  18. I don't feel so bad now I see that like to keep everything on your desk. I can see the advantages of being mobile!

  20. So erm, have a look at my work space, you'll feel better. And the thought of blogging from a starbucks sounds fabulous. :D

  21. What a brave soul you are! I carefully avoided as much of MY mess as I could when I took my inside desk photos (though some does still show if you look closely). I’m relieved to know I’m not the only one out there blogging with ‘clutter’ in the vicinity. Aren’t laptops the best? Being able to blog all over the place is so ‘kewl’ … Cute Fun Monday logo too! I’ve made a few myself … including one especially for today … using a cartoon I found at Chuck’s a while back.
    Hugs and blessings,

  22. Your desk looks messy/organized. You know, like you know where everything is and can put your finger on it, if you need it. But, you should have taken photos of each and every distant place you wrote a blog entry this week. That would have been amazing.

    Good luck with the new grandchild.

  25. I think I would like the traveling part! Your desk doesn't look TOO bad, and I'm impressed that you've left room for your laptop!

  26. Yeah I would blog at my desk, but mine is covered in papers. Right now I am in bed watching The Holiday

  27. First, good luck with the new baby's arrival--hope you don't have to travel too far to get in the act.
    Sounds like a good arrangement to be able to travel with your husband and send us your blogging impressions from so many interesting places. And, any desk that can produce such great photos is a good thing, in my opinion.

  28. Well, in the current state of my desk, I do not think I will be playing along! But you are brave :-)

  29. Lisa, the new website looks great. I really enjoyed looking at your photos...as usual.

  30. OOHH very neat looking!! Iam somewhat of a clean freak....but Grizzly said yesterday I should have clean house come to clean the office..specifically the desk!!

  31. Our desk looks messy most of the time. I don't really have a place to do crafts or scrapbook, so I haven't done it since we moved here. One day I will have a bigger place and fewer kids to do things for and hopefully will have my big projects done and working and I will have time and space to do the things I used to do.

  32. Your desk shot would work perfectly for this week's Round Robin Photo Challenge!
