Michelle brought me a drink at work on Friday and came to see me in my "habitat". It is kind of crazy to me that I spend so much time at work and do so many things there yet only the people I work with know about it. It feels all encompassing to me so it was fun to have her stop by in the middle of a very crazy lunch time to see some of it. Plus the drink was a delightful treat for me the rest of the afternoon!
We have popcorn for the staff on Fridays, plus my big drink from Michelle and then a Christmas present from the school nurse who comes in once a week. I was so shocked that she gave me something and I'm very excited because I've always wanted to grow bulbs indoors, so this little kit was a great surprise for me.
This is a peek into one of my desk drawers. Cake, fishy crackers, keys, a mirror, lip gloss, my phone would be there except I had to use it to take the photo, and miscellaneous notes and papers. I always feel kind of silly having food in my drawers, but I eat while I work or I don't eat at all so this is how I roll.
We had a gloriously obligation-free Saturday so I was able to clean and putter to my heart's content. Randy was kind enough to get me some Cafe Rio for lunch and I enjoyed it at the computer while watching Friday Night Lights...bliss!
The demise of my good camera is seriously hurting my blogging ways, that combined with busyness is making for some sporadic blogging for sure.
**What do you think?**
Comment Window Tidbit: Usually my tolerance for life at the junior is very high, but today it was not. It's probably because I'm feeling antsy about all the other stuff I have to do this week, but I hate it that it affects me so much.

I ALWAYS have food in my desk drawer at the office and I always keep tea bags around too. If a coworker needs a drink or snack they can count on me. I try to keep healthy stuff but always have in the back of my mind that one of my co-workers keeps chocolate in her drawer so I go visit her when I want sweets. (It would be dangerous for me to keep bags of candy in my drawer!)
In keeping with your Costco posts I took a pohoto of our Sam's haul last week. Kim and the kids thought I was nuts photographing our food! We don't frequent Sam's often but I was pleasantly surprised this time.
OH now I am SO curious as to what your calling will be!!! I won't even try to guess. I think the busyness of the holidays is making for sporadic blogging for everyone!! But so sorry about your camera!
Ohhhhhh pop and popcorn at work. What a fun thing. I'm all about the little things I think.
Popcorn and pop at work sounds so good -- almost as good as a movie.
I agree. Work is such a big part of my life, but due to privacy it's something I can share so little.
A sneak peek into your other life...:) It sounds like you are surrounded by great people.
I look forward to seeing your amaryllis in full bloom.
i just bought an amaryllis bulb today. i've done paperwhites the last few years. but this year i'm adding some read to the mix.
how fun for michelle to bring you a treat. i would have loved that.
It was totally fun seeing you in your work habitat. It's so weird that I think I know you so well, but you have this whole other life that I don't really know about.
I was thinking the same thing when I was making Max's bed today. I think I know my kids so well, but they have their own room, their own perspective, they spend so much of their time somewhere that I really don't know much about. Weird.
This Saturday is totally free and I could not be more happy about it. I excited to putter around the house.
Unexpected visitors are always a welcomed thing. So fun of Michelle to stop by.
If I think about it, it depresses me how much of my living I do at work. I usually eat breakfast and lunch there, which seems unnatural to me. I'm such a homebody. Every morning when I wake up I think, 'There has to be another way...'
I always like bringing my friends and family to my offices. I don't feel fully settled until people from my normal life see where I spend most of my waking hours.
