This is what I see when I first arrive at work in the morning, my presentation wall. I have an internal office and I look out across a hall to an external window. My office hall wall is the opaque glass you see on the right. So for conference calls, I close my office door to keep hallway noise from the phone.
At my desk on the first upper shelf, I face my framed picture of my daughter and me taken of us long ago on the West Coast and with all the sayings about mothers and daughters etched around the frame. And I am proud to have my hard hat available on a moment's notice for job site tours.
The quilt only took me 14 hours to make and then I had it machine quilted by a friend. It is a fractured nine-patch in an around the world setting, appropriate for the office because our company is in fifty countries around the world.
Finally, in the narrow closet to the left, I keep the safety vest and safety glasses which I also wear when I am at a working construction site. No flash required by the camera, because it is neon bright, so I won't get run over by any moving construction equipment!
Be honest. You cleaned that desk off special for that photo! :) Love it and nice to see the quilt in its place!
ReplyDeleteI put all the inbox stuff nightly up in the empty over-the-desk cupboard, so it looks like I am caught up when a visitor sees the empty inbox! After the Starbucks and the morning coffee, I bring the work down from the cupboard and into the open. I call it "my stack."
