The Office by happypat

The Office

My space !! Pretty untidy too, it is one of those jobs that I'm always going to do but never get round to it..same as every one else I would think !! This office was created by just building a wall at the end of the utility room so has never been kitted out properly & still has the old tiles on the wall & the electric point for a cooker ! On the wall are various photos & articles relating to our past farming life , a framed 1st prize certificate for a silage competition etc . There are also instructions from Jack to me reminding me how to attach images to an email & other such things I forget! The big desk is not used as much as it was thank goodness so is relatively clear of clutter , just a box that contained our new alarm clock which projects the time in the ceiling!! I seem to spend a fair bit of time in here on this 365 project so I will miss it for the next week as I am off to the depths of Donegal tomorrow! I am not taking a laptop & am pretty sure the internet situation will not be brilliant so I will have to catch up when I come back !!! I will miss you all & have withdrawal symptoms no doubt !!
Off to pack !
Happy travels Pat - we'll miss you too. Nice to see that your office, looks like our office, which in turn, looks like a whole lot of offices I have seen. LOL

Yes, I think this is pretty much many of our lives, and every so often you p[lay catch up and get everythig looking better for awhile, till next round.

hey....that's nothing to my idea of untidy!!!!
One of my fridge magnets says " a creative mess is better than tidy idleness" and I live by it!
Have a lovely holiday! x

great share of your space! I decommissioned my office a few months back to get my spare room back - it was just getting too messy and I never used it as an office, prefering the dining room table to work! This looks pretty tidy to me!

@murnane @digitalrn @sarah19 @sparkle I must admit when I actually put the photo up I was surprised it looked as tidy on screen as it does..you can't see all the little detail like things plonked on the window sill & the top of the wooden desk has a load of bottles on for some reason . This end you can't see is the worst with stuff stacked in the corner but anyway we just shut the door on it !!! Thanks all for your comments !!

Another wonderful shot Pat .....i love your words that go with it . You seem to enjoy your space and that is far more important than how tidy it is ......well used is what i would call it !

I think that this is a lovely, cheerful room for an office. It makes me smile. Doesn't an office have to have some "clutter?" It has to be used and lived in. The more, the better!! Nice photo, Pat. We will miss you. Have a great time!

Trust me this is tidy compared to my desk!! I have the dog's water bottle and some random hockey stick tape on mine as well as a Berlin guidebook (roll on Thursday!), a PG Tips monkey and my camera. And that's not including all the random paperwork, child-made pencil pots, tape measure, random tubes of 'ointment' etc!! I love your cow pictures and that you have the same photo on your computer - enlarged the same picture will keep repeating for ever! Have a great week away and we'll be looking forward to seeing your pics when you get back!

PS I'm about to do a quick collage of Warkwaorth show that you might like to compare with Gt Eccleston - actually it makes your show look like Chelsea but it was fun!

So this is the seat of all your creativity?! A great shot. Hope you have a wonderful holiday - with lots of photo opportunities.

Nice office space, believe me it IS tidy, well, compared to mine anyway, things just seem to get dumped on my desk ready to put put in their correct place.........which doesn't seem to happen very often!!
August 30th, 2011

Looks a lot like mine that I share with hubby. It is also my sewing/craft room and my computer printer scanner, craft storage room. Once it was a schoolroom for our son when he done School of the Air (Correspondence lessons for grade 8,9,10). The first thing I noticed was your lovely cow prints sitting above your computer are they your images? Hope you have a nice break away.
