From whence I blog

Pony Girl posted a great idea last night - she tagged all of her readers to show the space where they write their blogs. Here’s mine.


Clearly, I did not clean up for the photo shoot. My small desk is almost always cluttered. I used to have a big desk – in fact, the mother of all desks – and all I did was clutter it up. So my solution to the big mess was to downsize. It worked, sort of. Now I just have a smaller mess.

In addition to being my blogging space, this is my office. I work from home. Don’t tell my boss that the TV is on today. Blame it on Tiger Woods.

The door on the left leads out to the front porch and the barn. I can spin my chair away from the computer screen and keep an eye on what’s happening outside. And I don’t even have to leave the chair to open the door the 87 times a day that Smooch, the dog, wants to go out ... or come back in... or go back out. And whenever I need a break, I can just take a step or two and survey my domain, or hug a horse, or pet a pig. The porcine princess, Wynonna, usually waits just outside the door come dinner time. She's going to get some pretty funky tan lines if she's not careful.

  3. Your desk looks perfect. I'm kind of jealous of the monitor and I'm lusting after the chair. Smooch and Wynonna are lucky to have a stay-at-home mom.

  5. Linda thanks for sharing! I love your HUGE monitor, the chair, and the photos on the wall (did you take them?) How special that you get to just look out the window at the barn and your crew!! And I had to laugh, picturing Smooch up and down and out and in all day! ;)

  6. There is that cute Wynonna again! As mentioned above, you are SO lucky to be able to get up from your work, and enjoy your ranch...and all that it has to offer. Everyone looks WAY to organized to me, so I do not think that I will post my space :)

  7. What a wonderful work space and even better that you can work at your beautiful home with all of your special animals.

    Looks like Wynonna will make a super Football Official. hehe

    She's cute!

  8. After seeing your lovely office haven, there's no way that I'll show you where I blog - which is usually any place that no one else is since my family is always in my space and I have a laptop. I love Wynnona's soft sherpa bed. She looks so happy.

  9. Oh no! I just came out of the closet to your blog buddies, thanks to Pony Girl's idea, and decided to post my blog space photo. I'm not sure if a diver, runner, yoga person fits in with the cowgirl, horse and rancher motif, but whatever.

    I can't seem to stuff the ballot box on your poll. But I want more CATS! Deets still doesn't have a photo on your sidebar!
