A Lived-In Desk.

This is the cleanest my desk at home has been in a very, very long time.

I have company coming next weekend. So I spent a good deal of this weekend cleaning my entire house while listening to my Bikram dialogue on repeat. And now, my desk actually has some order to it.

Some.

Here is what is currently on my desk:

• THREE laptops. (One I write on regularly. An old one I have movies on that I still like to watch. And a work one.)
• One iPad, with All About Eve playing. I watch this most weekends when I work. Which is pretty much every weekend lately.
• Glass of water with lemon. (Constant hydration!)
• Noise-reduction headphones.
• Bowl with sage branch. (Burned every weekend to ward off bad energy collected during the week due to stress.)
• September issue of Vogue.
• July/August issue of Elle Decor.
• Paint card swatches. (Still trying to nail down the right shade of blue for the guest room.)
• Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams fabric swatch from new couch. (For helping to pick the right shade of blue for the guest room.)
• Brown leather journals I am taking to teacher training to write my notes. I will want to keep everything I write down. I wanted something pretty to write in.
• White binder with laminated Bikram dialogue.
• Reference books I will likely take to teacher training with me. (Wheels of Life, Bikram Yoga, Yoga Anatomy, Bikram's Beginning Yoga Class)
• Sephora OPI Stregnthener Fortifiant.
• Magazine subscription cards. (Magazines are more expensive up here in Canada. It is time to just subscribe to the five I read every month.)

This will probably be as clean as I can get this desk before I have a friend sleeping in my office next weekend. But at least she will have plenty to look at while she is in here.
