I try to keep up with it, really I do, but.....<br /><br />And I don't listen to any music when I'm writing. Not anymore. Any music distracts me, even soft instrumentals. I think it could be (ahem) my age. <br /><br />Thanks for the nice visit!Nancy Shumanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05584199691076992017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-12173613611670787342014-07-18T14:44:54.568-06:002014-07-18T14:44:54.568-06:00You have a way of making me feel like I'm ther...You have a way of making me feel like I'm there with you.<br />My favorite color combinations are the corn-yellow and blue. Your notebook caught my eye immediately. With flowers and a window to look out, your office is perfect. Sounds like you have done a little "downsizing".

I can't work in chaos and clutter at all, but a too pristine desk seems too spartan. If I'm really focused I can't listen to music, but if I'm just kind of puttering, I love listening to my 40s music. My bookcases are full; unless we get more shelving, I have to get rid of some if I bring any home. Love all my books; I've already culled as much as I can. I can't be expected not to ever buy another book, now can I? I'd like a butler :)Deborah Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04366855994841922862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-46075502573826870182014-07-15T22:21:52.781-06:002014-07-15T22:21:52.781-06:00A raspberry smoothie would be lovely, but I'd ...A raspberry smoothie would be lovely, but I'd have to move a bunch of stuff to find a place for it on my messy desk. Papers seem to migrate and stack up and get out of order and I NEED them all when I write. Brenda, I am writing a novel! It's so exciting. I go to bed thinking about the next step. I feel like a flood gate has opened.<br />I love that campaign style desk. Two of them would be perfect for your needs!Lorriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653026442945027184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-87192141917152655222014-07-15T20:51:31.405-06:002014-07-15T20:51:31.405-06:00welcome back, I'd love a smoothie right now an...welcome back, I'd love a smoothie right now and someone to clean off my messy desk. maybe tomorrow? lol...Great Grandma Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791149428495689835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-88619443021882771192014-07-15T19:50:17.642-06:002014-07-15T19:50:17.642-06:00Smoothie: Banana protein w/ almond milk -- raspber...Smoothie: Banana protein w/ almond milk -- raspberries stick in my crowns and blueberries upset my stomach (ironic that I sell them, eh?)<br /><br />Messy desk girl...

I was delighted to feel a shift... a lightness of mind and heart... in the culling. Anything that is still meaningful to me, or has been a special touchstone at some point in my life journey, I keep. Ones I've outgrown are easy to let go of. Any that I never did connect to, I get rid of right away, so they never stay around to clutter precious space. It's the ones I think I still might want to refer to on occasion that have little tendrils that tug.<br /><br />Oh Vee, yes I do remember those playlists...it wasn't that long ago, but now that seems so ancient.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping in.<br /><br />Brenda<br />xox<br /><br />Brenda @ Its A Beautiful Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02955486477303938670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-13549135103185552502014-07-15T18:10:34.850-06:002014-07-15T18:10:34.850-06:00Sometimes I listen to music while working on the c...Sometimes I listen to music while working on the computer. I have recently added music that used to be on my playlist...remember those? I would like either raspberry or blueberry, but yours looks so good, let's go with one of those. I agree with your hubby...books can take over a home in short order. I decided to limit myself to x amount of bookcases and when they are filled, I must cull. It happens yearly now.

My son just told me today I should rate my books and only keep those which are 5's and 4 ratings....why do I have such a hard time letting go of them?? I just finished tomorrows blog entry and I spoke of my office...I think I was suppose to read your post today!
