Amazing What You Can Find ...



When you clean your office!

I had to make room for my new office speakers and decided to clean up the office a bit. I picked up the pile of pop cans, started throwing away old notes, small boxes, etc.

Underneath all that I found a desktop! I haven't seen that for a long time!

That felt so good, I got the vacuum and started on the floor. Guess what else I found . . . carpet!

Woo Hoo!

Still working on the desk. Gotta rotate all the old catalogs with the new ones.

Wow!

A desk! Really?

I heard about those but I don't think I've ever seen the elusive "top" of the desk.

Congrats Web!

Wow Web! Well done. I did that between Christmas and New Year's when I was off. I was losing the floor. Things were just piled around. I did three months of filing. That helped right there. Sifting and sorting cleared up some more. Eventually, I arrived at a floor that I could once again vacuum without fear of sucking up papers.

I help Mz out with the same thing this weekend! She had this tiny little computer desk that couldn't even fit both her monitor and printer. Her printer was on a file cabinet next to the computer desk. And then she had this huge bulky desk that just collected paperwork. It was too bit to put next to the computer desk, so it was pushed against the wall. She went out and got one of those corner desks this weekend, and compared to what she had, it's huge! So we had to clean off the other two desks to put the new one up. With putting the desk together and moving everything, it took about 4 hours! But man, it looks so nice and is so much more efficient than what she had before!

Well I am proud of you all. I am one of those very anal people that must have OCD. I never let things pile up more than a day! I drive my family crazy too! Everything in its place right away please!

Well I can say that if nothing else- I always can put my finger on whatever I need. My hubby's garage and my son's room are a whole different story!

I will admit that only happens in the "office". The rest of the house is relatively clean. Sometimes the kitchen table gathers papers before I take them up to the office.

Just to clarify- my whole house is not a mess and would be a lot cleaner if I was home more. But since I'm not it seems to pile up quickly. Especially the dishes and the mail.

At least we all seem to contain it to one room.

Yeah, most of the papers on her table were stuff that didn't have spots, and half got thrown away. Stuff that isn't junkmail, but isn't bills or statements either. Stuff like magazine subscription renewals that come 6 months before the expiration date.

I don't know Web. It looks kind of fake now. Are you sure you work there? I have two theories. Either you went and took a picture of a fake office set up at the Ikea or your office was not that bad.

A paperless fuzzy? This fuzzy ccan not be paperless, no matter how hard I try. It is not the nature of the business, especially with all the new rules.

Well, since Web posted pictures... Mine doesn't look quite as perfect though. I prefer to think of it as homey.




And here's the closest I could find to an old pic:
