My Desk

If you could only see what's on my desk top right now it would give you great insight into my life (as I'm sure that is true of anyone's desk). There's an airplane and a small race car (both Toby's) on top of BJ's AF Reserve paperwork on top of an iPod that's not working and a picture of Kelli when she was 18 months old (long story on how that came into my possession). There's two coasters and a receipt (for BJ's new phone which we had to purchase when Toby threw his old one into a cup of tea), as well as our digital camera and various cords. Our family calendar is buried somewhere with "to do" lists on it and VA paperwork that BJ still hasn't filled out (maybe this public announcement will be enough to remind him to call them!!!). If I were to analyze the contents of this desk top I would say that I start many projects without fully completing any of them and that since having kids I have resorted to having piles as my filing system. My teammate of 3 years at Bates would be so proud of my evolution: I could never stand having piles on my desk at school and she worked with piles at least 6 inches deep in many places! I should mention that this is a good day for my desk.
