Hmmmmmmm . . .

I'm trying to gear up to do my taxes. Ordinarily I look forward to it.  I just feel so distracted this year for whatever reason.  I've been sitting at my desk for hours avoiding the task -- checking e-mail {over and over again as if I were expecting some very important message} and clicking through my favorite blogs and online stores.  And I've been thinking about this "desk" at which I'm sitting, which is really our old kitchen table, and wondering if it's really working for me.  {It doesn't really matter - we aren't planning on upgrading anytime soon, but thinking about this issue = NOT doing taxes = good right now. Also, sometimes plans change.} I really like all the surface area my table provides, but the printer and all the components are just sort-of shoved underneath.  All my storage is on top of the desk, which eats up a lot of that surface area I love so much, and it's just a little too high.  I've been sort of opposed to computer desks for home  in the past, but I may be reconsidering my stance.  I've always thought of them as being really stuffy and my home {I hope} is anything but stuffy.  There are a lot of really stylish options out there now days, however.  I have found a few that I wouldn't mind bringing home to meet the family at CSN Stores (while avoiding doing my taxes, of course).  I do love those little keyboard trays that pull out from underneath the work surface. Really love those. And if I had a neat little enclosed cabinet to house the "mechanical stuff" I may not waste so much time fishing paperclips and Cheetos out of my printer so that the paper feeds through correctly.  Whatever.  I'm pretty good at it. Now, about those taxes . . .
