Oh, finally
The office makeover is finished and now I’m in the opposite corner of the room from where I was stationed for over four years. There is new carpet, newly painted walls (at least in some parts) and finally the personalized space I’ve always wanted. In my purchases, I bought a $1 Valentine’s Day pail for my pens and scissors, a red and striped mug for coffee and hot chocolate and a black mini-tower to keep my time cards and sticky notes. The accessories now match my Sodoku day-by-day calendar. Now, it looks coordinated and clean and not like a combination of Big Lots finds and the leftovers of a former reporter.
I am missing one thing: a mouse pad. It’s been three years since I last purchased one, and the one I have is a plain black pad. It’s not fashionable, but it does its job. Today, I’m going through day 3 of the mouse pad hunt. I went to two Wal-Marts only to find pads with cats on them. There’s nothing wrong with cats; it’s just that I’m not a cat person.
When I purchase this and have the area set up just right, I’ll upload a photo of the new space.
