Cubicle + Office = Sucks

My office is moving this weekend into a new building. New building....yeah. Not having a door anymore....sucks. I have had an office that I have shared with my co-worker Lisa for the last 2 years. We have created a relaxed work space with mellow lighting, soft music, laughs and a lovely door that we kept shut. Now I am moving into a little grey box, with no door. I am going to miss my door and my co-worker even though she will be on the other side of my grey box.

I have started to gather items to decorate my new work space. I am looking for items with color. I  have few items like a lamp, cool pen and envelope holders and pictures.  I need something else to add color, so I do not feel like I am living in a cell but a space for conducive work to take place. I will check out somethings this weekend that may work in my space to make it more homey.

If you work in cubicle is there anything that you did to make your space better? Have a great T.G.I.F.

What about bringing in some colored storage items? Lighting is a must. I'm so spoiled that I get headaches when I use the flourescents in my office. Pictures? I found a really nice office design (that I'm working towards in my home office) over at www.bhg.com decorating.

Hope this helps!

I'm in a huge cube that I share with four people so count your blessings. To spruce up my area, I have a cute mirror, framed pics, awards that I have received from work and other random stuff. I just used one theme and stuck to and it works - antique gold.

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere. I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

On the Road Again.....

It was between Chicago and the state of Pennsylvania. Well....the state of Pennsylvania won out for our little trip for our first anniversary. It is a shorter drive than going Chicago, especially since we do not want to spend most of our mini-vacation in the car. I have a co-worker that lived in Pennsylvania and she gave me some great places for us to visit like, the Phipps Conservatory, the incline at Mt. Washington and the Pittsburgh Zoo ( I think that the hubby would like the aquarium). It is hard to believe that it has been almost a year since our wedding, but I can not wait for our time away. Even though I want to see somethings while we are there, I really just want to relax. If  you know any great places to go or see in the state of  Pennsylvania let me know. We are looking at taking some three day weekend trips in the summer and maybe a week long trip to the beach in the fall.  Do you have any plans for trips anytime soon or this summer? Share we might want to g...
