I travel a lot so the art in my office is from the places I’ve visited for work. I also try to buy something small from my travels to display on my desk (current fav are the wooden tulips from Amsterdam). For plants, I go to a local nursery that will answer questions and tell them I want a plant that likes neglect (usually succulents and snake plants are a good bet). Finally, I despise overhead lighting so I have floor lamps that all plug into a power strip with my computer, monitors, phone charger, etc. When I arrive/leave, there’s just one switch to flip!

I made the risky decision to replace the guest chairs in my office with a pair of beautiful blush pink velvet mid century chairs. It has made a huge difference in how happy looking across my desk makes me.

In reply to Ellen. I have not read Corporette in years - spending a week off before starting a new job so I decided to check in and can I just say I positively thrilled that Ellen is still here.

In reply to In-House in Houston. I did this originally, bringing in a few boxes of Kind Bars. While it alleviated my craving to go out to get cookies which were worse, I found myself eating and eating and eating the Kind bars and in a matter of 2 months after I started here, I went up to a size 4 (and it was tight--FOOEY!) . I told Dad, and he immediately jumped on me for eating the Kind bars, and then had me give all of them to Roberta, who had came by a lot of times to eat one beforehand, and Roberta does not care about her dress size. So now I must get mini carrots and have them ready for me in the refridgerator in the pantry. Dad says I can eat as many of these as I want w/o affecting my tuchus. YAY!!

How timely! I just started a new job today! I brought a water bottle and a box of tissues. I’ll be in a large cubicle, so I plan to bring things over the next week or two. I always keep a brush, small makeup bag, and chapstick/lip gloss in my desk. I’ll bring those tomorrow and other desk comforts like a colorful wrist guard, desk placemat thing, and a mug or two.
