Working Wednesday: The Scathingly Brilliant Idea Edition

I’m in the middle of digging out this hellhole of a house–the house is fine but I am a truly terrible housekeeper–and I was trying to figure out whether to put my office in the half of the living room near the kitchen or in the half near the windows, when it hit me.

What if the office wasn’t in the living room?

The living room is where I talk to people, or it was before it descended into madness. The small bedroom is where I live and write and do business and sleep, leaving the big bedroom for guests and yarn and fabric. But I’d rather write in my bedroom even if you’re not supposed to write in bed 24/7. It’s where I write. Therefore, my office stuff should be there, too.

I mean, that’s just brilliant. (Hey, I take my wins where I can get them.)

And then I looked at the logistics, and the bedroom was too small to take a bed AND my writing table. That I love but never write on. Which led me to Scathingly Brilliant Idea #2.

Move back into the big bedroom. I don’t mind yarn and fabric staring at me. And there’s room in there (I think) for the writing table, too. Possibly room for printers and papers and notebooks. I think it’ll all fit.

God, I’m smart.

Of course the amount of work this is going to take is horrendous, but I can do it. Slowly. Very slowly.

What brilliant ideas did you have at work today?
