My back is to my window! But said window is filled with lots of greenery, & is lovely to look at in the day & is covered by a curtain printedd with more greenery at night.

When I'm Mudcatting I face lots of lovely postcards & photos - Mary in Kentucky sent me cards showing a local waterfall & lake, Naemanson sent me a pic of the boat he helped build, Linda Goodman sent me cards from Washington, Suffet sent me a card of the Brooklyn Bridge, a vciew of Norfolk Island ge=iven to me by a colleague & a wonderful pic of a polar bear & babies taken bya friend in Churchill, Baffin Bay, Canada. I also look at pics clipped out of magazines showing gardens & trees, snow, & sunsets, and a great pic of Pete Seeger taken from a CD box.

My table was built by Mudcatter Jack Halyard to fit into a small space, & includes a special support for my left arm as it aches if not supported. The desk also includes supports for the 5 proper CD shelves above, & I somehow balanced 3 smaller shelves in the space beside my screen (17" iMac) for my Mudcatter collection.

Beside me on my left I have my scanner/printer sitting on a white unit that probably originally held something in someone's kitchen. I keep a plastic In-Tray on top of the scanner & a few toys in front - all need moving when I use the scanner. I keep paper in a wire basket below the scanner.

On my desk I have a Japanese paper & cardboard desk caddy & a Japanese paper doll, both made by me,a few more toys, & decorative stuff hanging off shelf ends & my light!

To the right of my desk are tall display shelves containing teddy bears & other interesting stuff, like dolls, Japanese ornaments, more CDs & my CD player.

Notes & notepaper & pads of sticky paper abound, & I can't forget the little yeloe sticky-paper notes around my screen!

Finally I sit on a very comfortable ergonomic chair, & from it I survey the chaos of library books & other stuff on my floor - must clear a track thru it sometime tonight. Maybe.
