I love this week’s pins…the photos, the graphic design. Just love. I will always be grateful to Pinterest (cheesy as it may sound) for allowing people to create a community where beautiful things can be shared and discovered. It really is wonderful.

I was sitting at my desk today as I worked on this collection of images, and I was loving the light from my window. Today is cold and overcast, just as I like it, and I wanted to share some of the everyday things I see when I work. Because hey, this is my life!

I always have too many coffee cups – normally I collect up to five before finally taking them downstairs. It’s my little collection. ;) I have two storm trooper action figures my dad bought me years ago – I’m a big Star Wars fan/geek. Poor guy on the right is missing a hand. Oh, and by the way, the first three movies that were made ARE Star Wars. Forget Disney! hehe. I have quite a few machine guns that go with the storm troopers – those are mixed in with my favorite fountain pens and Sharpies. (Nothing beats writing with real ink, people.) And of course I have books. I’ve been collecting them for so long and have so many that I’m running out of places to put them! So they end up on the floor by my bed, or in empty chairs, or piled in open spaces on my desk.

^^^ And yes, my desk is horrendously messy. Oh well…sometimes you can’t keep everything together. ;) ^^^
