My New Office
I'm so excited! Yesterday, while I was working at Borders, my new office was built. It's a built-in wrap-around desk of cherry that looks out onto our backyard. I'm writing this from my office desk for the first time. I don't think I've ever been so excited about a new feature in my house! LOL. Here is a picture–kind of hard to see because of the sun shining in–clearly I need to buy some blinds. I'll post another picture when I have it all set up!
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, everyone! I hope yours ...

I...
