You'll have to let us know how it helps being able to spread out and do your work in your own little space. I had a space for a brief period of time, but it didn't last long and is now my son's room. My "space" is our kitchen table in the corner of the breakfast room with about a thousand other things on it, haha.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12146136846875431598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4427684969035857472.post-45939322604581962542012-11-20T20:24:11.167-08:002012-11-20T20:24:11.167-08:00Don't worry about it when blogging slips. Ever...Don't worry about it when blogging slips. Everyone understands, I'm sure. I totally get it, though. I sometimes feel guilty when I neglect my own blog.<br /><br />Sorry you and your hubby were sick, but congrats on the office space! I have a desk of my own (well, most of it is mine) in our den. My husband and kids (now teens) are super respectful of my space and my writing time. Thus, I don't really need anything fancier. A maid would be nice, though. ;)<br /><br />Happy Thanksgiving!Dawn Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05667675689038435581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4427684969035857472.post-41845879988351171982012-11-15T20:40:55.787-08:002012-11-15T20:40:55.787-08:00Aw!

The thing that touched this all off (more than the couch writing) was the fact that I hated my Samsung laptop with a fiery passion. So now I'm getting acquainted with my new MacBook Air! Lightweight and sturdy, all the better for meeting deadlines in strange places ;)Rachel Searleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09413906883952940334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4427684969035857472.post-7329690552783187362012-11-12T14:16:03.469-08:002012-11-12T14:16:03.469-08:00Wait!

I have my Jeremy space, but at times I am forced to meet deadlines, thus wherever I can crank up the lappy becomes my secondary space.Jeremy Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00877532315856151843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4427684969035857472.post-26599168678658627302012-11-12T14:08:12.495-08:002012-11-12T14:08:12.495-08:00Thanks!

OR I go to Panera and write. :) It's weird because I HAVE A DESK but it is just littered with other things and I can never write there Siiiigh. Love your new space, though!

But before we got that, I would write on the couch or in my bedroom. :) Kathryn Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05270893925385208665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4427684969035857472.post-92056919172555708442012-11-12T12:16:32.580-08:002012-11-12T12:16:32.580-08:00Lovely orchid. :) I used to write on the couch, to...Lovely orchid. :) I used to write on the couch, too, but my chiropractor says that's bad for your back. Also, he says your brain is more alert when you're sitting upright at a desk or table. <br /><br />So, now I have a roll-top desk in the front room. It's not ideal. It's not my own office where I can shut the door. But, it'll work. I still have a view of the Puget Sound from the front room. And during the day when the house is quiet, I have no reason to shut any doors. ;)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12870655070026853342noreply@blogger.com
