Thirteen Things on my desk

Thirteen Things on my desk

1. My computer (duh, but really it’s only there when it’s not on my lap and I spend a good chunk of the afternoon on the couch).

2. Books (Rogets Thesaurus, Oxford Dictionary, The Elements of Style, Birthday Book and Address Book - those are the ones I always keep close by).

3. Calendar (3 of them actually. A big desk one, a small two year one and a Far Side one that goes in my purse when I leave the house).

4. Printer

5. External Hard drive (my Valentine’s present).

6. Hand sanitizer (3 different kinds)

7. 2 cups full of pens (a Jamie Denton mug and a Timon and Pumpaa jelly glass).

8. Coffee (well, if I’m here then there’s coffee here).

9. Dry erase board (it’s pink. :) )

10. Tissues

11. Passionfruit/Guava flavored candle (yummy and it reminds me of Hawaii).

12. Gadgets (my iPod, camera battery charger)

13. A lemon tree (or it might be an orange tree, I’m not really sure. I won’t know until it actually gets fruit).

    Stick with the LIRW and one of these days, you’ll add a Golden Rose (1st RWA sale) to your desk!

  3. Shelli Stevens Says:

    Hand sanatizer! I love that stuff :D

  4. Lara Rose Says:

    Ooooh. where’d ya get a pink dry erase board? I totally want one!

  5. Tilly Greene Says:

    Okay, I have to know…hand sanatizer, good, 3 bottles? Darlin, do we need to meet up for a face-to-face intervention? And, how long have you had the tree? Are you sure it’s going to bear some fruit?

  6. Elle Fredrix Says:

    LOL. Okay, the three hand sanatizers made me wonder as well. And people say I’m anal about cleaning/washing my hands!

  7. Crystal Jordan Says:

    They have pink dry erase boards? I’m so jealous right now. I want one!

  8. Cat Marsters Says:

    Hey, I never got a Golden Rose! I got a pink ribbon for my conference badge…

    And I’m also curious about the three bottles of hand sanitiser. I use a sink and soap (and no, that’s not on my desk!).

  9. Eva Gale Says:

    You must be very sanitized. :-) My desk -because it’s sooo well shared-is a disaster.

  10. Tempest Knight Says:

    Wow! And you have space for all that in your desk?

  11. Emma Says:

    LOL! Yes, I have a germ phobia, okay?!?!

    And I have grape, green apple and banana. Sometimes I like my clean hands to smell different!

    As for the pink dry erase board - I got it at Bed, Bath & Beyond a few years ago (it was around back to school time, I think).

  12. Kissa Starling Says:

    I love candles of any kind. You love that hand sanatizer don’t ya! Your desk is as cluttered as mine. I love pink also.

  13. Jennifer Bianco Says:

    I wanted a lemon and/or orange tree, but I don’t live South enough. :(
    I also want a desk, but may not use it much, since I spend a good chunk of the afternoon on the couch with my laptop too. I’d just like a choice. ;)
    And a pink dry erase board? How cool!

  14. Heather Says:

    And I thought my desk had a lot on it… :)

  15. Brenda Williamson Says:

    I have two reasons for tissues on my desk….cats with hairballs….and sometimes I cry. Okay, so I confess….I cry a lot when writing the mushy love stuff :-) Don’t tell me yours are just for wiping your monitor screen.

  16. Lis Says:

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen a pink dry erase board. Very cool!

  17. Shelley Munro Says:

    You must have a really big desk! A lemon tree?

  18. Emma Petersen Says:

    I think hand sanitizer is the best thing since sliced bread and I LOVE sliced bread. Hehe.

  19. Robin L. Rotham Says:

    Gee, I don’t know that I have thirteen things in my office, much less on my desk — it’s my one bastion of neatness. Now, thirteen things on my bedroom floor or thirteen moldy items in my fridge — definitely.

  20. Julie S Says:

    I could really use a dry erase board for my office - I’ll have to check out BB&B.

    I’m impressed you have a tree on your desk.

  21. Lillian Feisty Says:

    Three differnet hand saniizers? What are the differences?

  22. Shari Straight Says:

    Why is it wee need *3* calendars??!!

  23. Kate Willoughby Says:

    I want a lemon tree, too. I’m going to buy one very soon because whenever I need a lemon, I don’t have one! Happy TT!
