Most of the above Jul 31, 2010

I have all the things listed, and many more, except a flash drive. My drive isn't particularly flash ...
Love, Jenny

Many of the above plus... Jul 31, 2010

A big jar of fresh water.

No cat: she prefers to stay outside and, for obvious reasons, I do NOT allow her to sleep on the ventilation slots of the computer, even though she'd love to

Cheers!

Ruth @ MW

Cats Jul 31, 2010

Oh, like all of you, I do have, tea, pen, paper, telephone, etc.

But since I work at home, I have a special luxury item: my cat's basket!

Purr-therapy being the best I know against stress at work, I do use and abuse the luxury of having a sleeping cat just nearby, to put my nose in its hair every 2 hours or so.



You should try, really



Oh, what we would became without them? sitting on our laps, checking all our moves, our hand can rests on their warm body and this definitely relieves pain from too much writing.

Most of the time I try to have my camera at the ready to capture a bird, a seal or other wildlife.

Dictionaries and dogs Aug 1, 2010

My boyfriend built shelves for my dictionaries that hang on the wall and hover just above the computer. I can reach them without moving anything but my arms. It's an engineering masterpiece.

Also near at hand are my two dogs, lying together on their pillow and waiting for me to take my eyes away off the screen.

Several of the above Aug 1, 2010

Coffee and/or water, the radio (when I don't have to concentrate much or make phonecalls), my cell phone, pen and notes, agenda, dictionaries when applicable, and grapes if I crave a snack
