Today I am sharing again my cozy office space

Back in April I showed you how it looked here

I loved the sweetness of the space and the look but it was time for a change.

And because I find to keep it from looking like this . . .

I have to regularly move everything to dust so why not start over with a fresh new pallet.

Everything gone but the essentials.

The computer and pencil box

I love my free leather pencil box from The Container Store.

Yes.

I said 'Free'.

Back in the day when The Cowboy worked in the corporate world we used American Express for all our purchases. For a time they offered gift cards as rebates. I got some really nice things from Pottery Barn and The Container Store that I would not have normally bought.

I did keep a few bunnies out because they make me smile and they are functional. Doesn't everyone need a pot hanger bunny keeps my pens and pencils from running away. The rock bunny holds down all my pieces of paper and notes to myself.

I did tidy up alot before inviting you in. I will show you at the end a little of what a normal day looks like!

I ran across the below picture and decided it was the perfect time to put on my desk to admire . . .

Then and now. Look how much hair he had and how skinny he was. He wore 29" waist pants when I met him in 1974.

The perfect time to share? Our anniversary is this month.

It's been a long time

I surround myself with special treasures, things and people I love.

One more photo before I show you what my desk looks like before my weekly dusting and organizing.

The Cowboy took this one in 77 I think when he was in college

I was skinny back then!

Here's the desk on a normal day . . .

My calendar filled with book reviews. My highlighters I use to mark read, reviewed, written, posted and submitted. It's a process.

See the little bunny card on the left. It's written and ready to mailed to my new penpal. I joined Sarah for her penpal project.

Her blog is over here.

And way over to the left you'll see a small stack of books. I keep the pending ones on top. There's always 4-5 on the book case next to my desk. It doesn't get that weekly dusting.

Just for fun I want to share one more shot just because m silly. . . .
