Jumbo Shrimp, Limited Lifetime Membership, Silent Screams...all oxymorons.
But what about Organized Clutter? Is there such a thing? My husband seems to think so...
Well...let's look at my desk for instance. My Brother MFC 8460N Laser Printer to my right, My Hewlitt Packard flatbed legal scanner to my left, my monitor in the middle, my hanging files (and lots of them) within both drawers on either side of me...My label maker, stapler, pens. pencil sharpener, stack of business cards, postcards, mailing labels, pictures of my children, overdue files, my big fatty calendar-(displaying a beautiful blanket of appointments), reference materials, my notary stamp and journal locked away safely in its drawer, overnight packaging envelopes, etc., 2 phones, my Sun Light Lamp that so proudly lights my way, all organized and conveniently within MY reach.
But seriously...as much as I love the way I can access anything I need at my desk, My wonderful, truck driving husband laughs at me...calling my masterpiece of a desk ORGANIZED CLUTTER!! "But I work well this way," I tell him. I'm not a mess...I am very efficient and everything has its place...( I think so anyway). I've never lost anything, never misplaced a file...perhaps he doesn't understand the nature of the business...maybe he doesn't understand the nature of MY business...hahaha.
Made me think about how others organize themselves...what makes others comfortable while spending ruthless hours at the desk sometimes...
So I ask, what is on YOUR desk? What makes you work more effortlessly, and efficiently?
Thanks for reading!
