:shock: Crap, now I have to clean...hmm, maybe not

[willpresley]

Jodi ---> :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Pauline]

:lol: Jodi, that's just what I thought. Got the job done though!! Every day I would be too busy playing to do it. Thanks Will for forcing us to clean up our work area! :lol:

[kerriann85]

Hmmmm, my area of Work work or my Home work? :)
(wonder if my boss would accuse me of being some sort of spy for the competition if I show up at the office with my camera.....)

[karen donnybrook]

Good morning all,

Yes it is morning in my corner of the world - actually 06:00 on Wednesday morning.

Raffy a good photo of a typical pottery with clay everywhere - do not clean it up

Nancy the chair looks very comfortable

Jo wish I had a boss like yours

[michoumisalade]

hum... I dunno if you are like me but I began to clean but as I have to work of this picture just taken, then....Oh! nevermind.... another day will be ok too :roll:

[ThomasT]

LOL SHERRY I LOVE YOUR OFFICE SPACE!!!! It looks like mine on a good day, sometimes I just cant find wat ever I am looking for. and its all spread out all over!!!

Thomas

[Pauline]

:lol: So far Sherry, my vote for the messy desk goes to you! Why is it so easy for our work area to get cluttered?? My 'painting' table doesn't have an inch of free space (it's 6' long). If I want to work I have to clear an area!!

[ThomasT]

Psssss Pauline Between me and my mom who both share the computer, I seem to get mad when she moves my stuff back to where its supposed to be cause then I cant find anything!!! oh you should see the stuff I think I might have to clean up a bit because theres a yogurt sitting here since yesterday morning I think I might see a pizza in the corner and there about a billion pictures spread out across my area... Hey it looks just like my room!!!! :lol: :lol:

[jazzfisher]

Hey, at least I don't have any old food laying around just stuff to do!!!!

[jazzfisher]

Ray,
Are you trying to tell me something with your desk area?????? :wink:

[Pauline]

Thomas, no eating around the computer! Don't you know the rules?

Tony. Loved your pictures. I am stunned by the width of that typewriter carriage!! I remember those old adding machines! Never used one, and I don't think it would be the kind where you flipped the invoice with one hand and punched in the number without looking with your other!! No speed would be happening with that thing.

[Pauline]

Nice one Shelly!! I make my kids do their own laundry now, so I don't have to look at that 'office' near as much. Something about rewashing clothes that ended up in the laundry hamper still folded because they were too lazy to put them away caused to have a little 'mother meltdown!". It worked out for the best though. :wink:

[Shelly]

I'm so close to that point with my kiddos, Pauline -- just a little longer. I can just make out your paintings and saw your stunning flowers posted a week or so ago. You are so talented.

Those are some hum work spaces, everyone. Jo, good looking boss. And Tony, that is lovely photo. That worn old wood has a wonderful patina that you've captured.

Shelly

Little Moi here ?? ;-)

Nope... I look at all the desks and see that mine looks sterile :)

Ray

[ThomasT]

LOL pauline.. Yes well when it gets cleaned up just like it did about 30 minutes ago its pretty good area to work in... in the picture I will post theres a notepad for writing down ideas... i can see the note pad now before it was covered in photos!!

Thomas

[Jodi Frye]

Pauline, I don't know, I try to keep my little cave tidy and I prefer it tidy but I just can't seem to keep it that way. School stuff, bills etc...all that crap ends up in here. Probably why I've lost focus. I do have visions on occasion on how I can organize things better. ' Visions' are usally as far as it gets. My biggest problem is that this is not my house. We are renting so I can't do much at all as far as ' making more room'..lord knows how many walls I'd love to tear down and add to. :roll: Still not sure I can take a pic of it. Perhaps i should just take a pic of my bed...sleeping is good work ;)

[Pauline]

Jodi, I know how you feel!! Some times I think we just collect too much stuff (that being said, I was just notified by Amazon that my new books have been shipped! :lol: )

I have so much 'stuff' in this room there is no room left!! 99% has to do with my paintings, so there is wood products, lots of paints, brushes, books, books and more books! I don't plan on doing a craft show this year so nothing that's done will even get sold, but it won't 'go bad' and maybe one day I'll return to it. It is my haven though.

[Jodi Frye]

Eva, yours reminds me of the luxury creativity studio room I had while growing up...well, it was my mothers but we both had our desks in it. What a nice warm peaceful feeling you have portrayed. Gosh I want your workspace !

[Pauline]

Wendy, where's all your stuff?? You desk looks way too tidy! :lol:

[virgo1]

Jodi,

Thanks. Sometimes I don't feel as peaceful as it looks.(you know those dark moments) It is cluttered though. I have to move stuff to access the closet. :lol: Everyones space is interesting.

Eva

[Wendy]

Pauline ...

Ummm ... well books are in the bookcase and bits are in my in tray but I actually don't keep much else around :(

Guess I'm just too tidy !!

Wendy

[Wendy]

Raffy ... Oh Wow that is amazing !! I love the cats rule OK :)

Nancy ... now you are so well organised ... nice set up

Jo ... and not a computer in sight

Pauline ... certainly a lot going on there and you have your challenge image on the screen

Michoumisalade ... Ummm lots of goodies there and wgat a cute Octopus :)

Sherry ... :shock: how do you find things?

Ray ... I can't seem to access yours ??

Tony ... When I first started work I used ledgers like those ... not the typewriter though :)

Shelly ... Nice original shot!!

Eva ... Oh your workspace says come on in and EXPLORE !!

Wendy

[Carbone]

Wendy,

There's actually a problem with PBase :-(

Ray

[virgo1]

Wendy,

My loom has a name. She was made in Sweden, a Glimakra. I named her Lena the Loom. The windows make it a loom with a view. :lol: :lol:

Eva :wink:

[Wendy]

Eva ...

I just love your sense of humour :)


Wendy

[virgo1]

Wendy...

Thanks. I need a sense of humor to survive. I don't have humorids. :lol:

Eva :wink:

[jazzfisher]

Eva,
There's a alot of "looms" by the lakes in Minnesota & Wisconsin!!! :lol:

I did some weaving in college for art classes I liked it alot. But we had to build our own loom & everything---I did get an "A" though!!!

[jazzfisher]

Wendy,
I know you won't believe me but I usually know right where everything is-even if I have to dig for it--I know which pile to look in! :D

Why don't you come to my house & organize me???

[CarolLHB]

Oh Eva, what I wouldn't give for a room of my own like that for the computer and all my crafty stuff :roll: Sigh....

Wendy-nice computer!!!! I keep visiting my iMac at the Apple Store...sigh again...

[virgo1]

Carol,

Thank you. The other side of the room is another story. The other side is piled higher and deeper. :lol:

Sherry...You have to be warped weave. I have some wonderful yarns to get warped with this winter. I should take a pic of my favorite rag rug. :lol:

Eva :wink:

[jazzfisher]

Eva,
I meant to ask what you weave---I did a wall hanging.
Would Love to see your stuff.

[Wendy]

Sherry ...

Maybe we could fit an "Organise" Day in on the world tour :) :)


Wendy

[virgo1]

Sherry,

I like weaving rag rugs and wall hangings and love weaving Swedish lace. This winter I want to try something different and have done a goose eye twill draft using an application called Pixeloom. I have to figure out how to transfer my .wif (weaving information files) files to Elements.
Sherry...You gave me an idea. Thank you. Take more pictures. :D

Eva :wink:

[raffy]

Hi,Karen and Wendy!
Glad you liked seeing the "nitty- gritty" side of pottery!Our studio is one place where you literally get "feet of clay"!(ouch-well,I'd already used the "gone to pot" pun.)Next time I'll go for a "mug shot".
Wendy-love your studio!It inspired me to clean up my desk area (but,alas,not the wheel room-clay sera,sera!).

P.S.How do you get the little emoticons into the message without a line of text stating that it is javascript.etc.?

[Wendy]

Raffy ...

To add emoticons ...

either click on the ones at the right hand side of the box .. and it adds them automatically

or type in the shortcut .. so if you type this : then straight after it try this ) ... well then you get this :) ...

I tend to type them in as its quicker :)

Wendy

[raffy]

:oops: Well,I should have known it would be that easy! :P Many Thanks,Wendy! :? ttfn,the Raffmeister

[jazzfisher]

Wendy,
We might need more than one day at my house!!! :lol:

Eva,
At least I give someone Ideas!!!


Still not getting notifications on my topics.........just got back here by accident

[Pauline]

Sherry, my notifications seem to be hit and miss!
Today was a dud for me. Nothing accomplished and I'm going out shortly.

[jazzfisher]

Pauline,
A evening with a friend is never wasted!!

[Carbone]

Mike,

Wow.. 25 teenagers... You must a very, very patient person! You have my admiration!!!

Ray

[virgo1]

Mike,

You have mine too. Wow!

Eva :wink:

[mrod]

Thanks Ray & Eva. It's never boring, that's for sure!

Mike

[lindajay]

:cry: Waaaaah. I can't get Pixentral to accept my "work space" photo today. I've put dozens of them out there before, so I know how to do it, but today it won't let me! Anyone else having problems?

--Linda

[virgo1]

Linda,

Your photo is in the Gallery and it is main. Nice space. How do you keep it so neat :D (You should see the clutter my monitor hides.) :lol:

Eva :wink:

[Pauline]

Sherry the night out was lovely and the movie was excellent! "Flight Plan".

Linda, you need more stuff on your desk! Would you like some help organizing it. :lol: All that clear space, how can you work like that?

[lindajay]

Well, it's not ALWAYS like that. It gets cluttered, but it has lots of "hidey holes" for things, so that helps. Also, it's "L" shaped, and my hubby's "station" is on the other leg of the "L", and sometimes gets pretty messy. Looking right now, though, it looks like he's tidied his side up a bit, too!

--Linda
:)

[lindajay]

Hmmmm. But now, when I click on my gallery link, the office space is NOT coming up as my front page. I'm still getting the "chocolate face" picture. Can't figure this one out.

---Linda

[Wendy]

Linda ...

Did you change over the "main image" ??


Wendy

[lindajay]

Yes, Wendy, I did. And I've gone in several times to check it again. It's ticked as the main image, but isn't coming up that way. Oh well . . . not a big deal, I guess. Maybe I'll go check and see if Pixentral is working now. Have a nice Saturday!

--Linda

[virgo1]

Sherrie,

Your space looks lovely and peaceful. :D

Eva :wink:

[jazzfisher]

Gary, Sherrie & Linda,
How do you work in those places??? They are so clean!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

[virgo1]

Bill,

Wow! What if you cut one of those red...uh oh again? :lol: :lol:

Raffy,

What a beautiful mud room. Out cat rules. :D :D

Eva :wink:

[Punkinsmom]

Yeah right! I purposely didn't take a picture of the whole room. There are two printers (one is huge, a big canon for all my scrapbook pages), lot's of cocker spaniel stuff including all their grooming supplies. You should see it now! What a mess. There's a opened Canon EOS Rebel XT box with papers poking out, two cameras and I'm sure I could find a partridge in a pear tree if I looked really hard.

This is a very peaceful room, I have a killer view out my back window and the color of blue on the walls is very soothing. BTW, in case you haven't noticed on my pictures, blue is my favorite color!

[Punkinsmom]

Pixentral is working again!

Here's the proof.

[Punkinsmom]

Ok, how's this for messy!

My hubby bought me a new camera today. A Canon Rebel XT. I've got my work cut out for me now, all these buttons!!!!!!!!!! :!: :D :D :D :D

[Carbone]

Sherrie,

Congratulations on that Rebel !!! Another member in the great Canon familly :)

Ray

[billz]

Cool Sherrie ... have fun with it!

Bill Z

[jazzfisher]

Sherrie,'cool camera but messy? go back & look at my space!!!! :oops: :cry: :lol:

[Punkinsmom]

Sherry,

Yep, it's messy for me and the rest of the room is a wreck. have you ever heard the cliche the hurrier I go the behinder I get, well, it's kinda like that for me in my room except it goes something like this, The more organized I try to become the more I find myself searching for things I organized. I can't even see the top of my desk right now!

[jazzfisher]

Sherrie
---you mean I'm supposed to have a desktop that I can see???? What a clever idea!
If my piles get any higher I won't be able to see my screen! :lol:

[willpresley]

Well it is nice to know I'm in good company -- the wife the other day said we were going to clean the room (ouch).

[jazzfisher]

Will,
WE is the key word in that sentence..... :lol:

[Wendy]

I have to admit that I'm a bit of a tidy up person in the study ... I have a place for everything and occasionally everything gets put in that place :) :)


Wendy

[jazzfisher]

Wendy,
I admire that in a person, I wish it would rub off on me some though.

[Pauline]

I find my room gets cluttered with papers and stuff! Speaking of paper, today I ran out. My kids just love to go and scoop it out of the printer and can't just take what they need but a handfull. I knew I had a box of paper, and had to hunt for it after I cleaned this room in spring! The longer I looked the madder I got. :lol: Finally found the bloody stuff at the bottom of my closet under 3 other boxes!! I think I'll remember where it is now though.

[virgo1]

Oh Pauline...

The number of times I've done that excedes the number of digits I have by many fold. I put things away thinking it's a "good" place and can't find it 2 weeks later. :lol:

Eva :wink:

[GaryK]

So are you guys saying you can hide your own Easter eggs??? :lol: :lol:

[Pauline]

:P Gary!!
Couldn't find the heading pad for my neck a couple days ago when it was sore. I KNOW I put it some place safe!! :oops:

[Wendy]

Pauline ...

Never put things somewhere safe that guarantees that you will not be able to find them :)

Wendy
