Thank You Santa

Santa (aka – My Calmer) has been very good to me this year, especially in helping me make a few of my photography dreams come true.  A big part of his generosity has been a partial redesign of my itty bitty workspace in our family room.  One major thing getting an upgrade? My desk chair!  I need a better space for editing. Sitting on the sofa every night with the laptop in my lap is no longer working. Why do I edit on the sofa?

THIS is the reason I currently edit on the sofa

The chair may look nice in the space, but it’s just awful to sit in. AWFUL! It’s short, the curve in the seat is awkward, and the chair is hard. Not the best working conditions, AT ALL.

So Santa decided to do something about it this year (thanks Santa!).  And today we went to the store and bought what is soon to become my new best friend.

This is the Lauren dining room chair from World Market. She is absolutely perfect in every way. The right size. The right height. The right cushion. And she was even on SALE! It was meant to be if it was on sale.

The redesign isn’t over, but it has sure gotten off to a great start! I can’t wait to make some more changes in the coming weeks and share them with you. Exciting things are underway, but you’ll just have to wait a bit longer to hear what they are.

Where do you typically use your computer when photo editing, chatting, or doing your daily business online? Is there anything in your working space that you can’t live without?  Something I must have in my redesign? Tell me here!
