New Office/"Free" Laptop Warning
Our new office is now done. Notice Gary's fine craftsmanship on making the desk appear as one piece. He did a great job! As usual, my work consisted of the painting; however, I (yes, me!) I moved the computer over to the new desk. Very overwhelming... wires and cables galore, tangled, twisted. I had to poke the wires through two holes: one located at the top of the desk and the other located underneath the desk going from one section of the desk to the little hidden space under the desk where the computer sits. But I was very proud of myself when I turned the computer on and it actually worked!
Back to the new office... It is really going to free up space in the guest room plus we have more countertop space. It would be nice to someday get rid of our dinosaur computer and replace it with a laptop, but that doesn't seem to be in the near future. I recently fell for that "free laptop scam..." where you go to www.getmyfreelaptop.com. Whatever you do, don't fall for this! You have to sign up for 12 (yes 12!) different programs/products to qualify and they all cost between a few dollars to $50-$60. Things like stamps.com, netflix, makeup that they send you every 3 months, free credit reports, skin care, book clubs, etc. All these companies immediately charge your credit card and if you want to return them, it's a big hassle. Trust me... don't do it!
Anyway (now that I've got that off my chest), I still have to go through files and organize the office. We've lost some drawer space, but have a whole shelf to store things in cute little boxes that I've yet to get.
