Pad Patter: 4/8 - What's Always On Your Desk

What's Always On Your Desk?

Me? Cups. All my cups. Currently, 2 iced tea and 2 coffee. I don't know what my problem is. Other than that, I keep it fairly tidy, but always with the cups.
 
My iPhone and usually a few piece of random paper with my constant lists.
 
books and papers to grade, and earrings. haha, I always seem to take them off at the puter.
 
junk. crap. mugs. cords. camera, phones, mp3 players, old mail, magazines, kid's drawings (waiting to be scanned) ooh, a camera lens and anything I've taken away from the kids for improper use (like a pile of nailpolish...). It's a big junk-heap. :P
 
Is this a tricky question? There is always a... mess.
 
Mine is normally a complete disaster area, avalanche waiting to happen. I just cleaned it all off a couple of weeks ago though and it's not tooooo terrible right now... a few papers, a couple of things that need to be super glued, packaging from my new Spyder, and a shirt that needs to be re-hemmed.

I need to get this stuff taken care of before it multiplies. The shirt is bugging me the most. Guess I need to dig out the sewing machine. Unfortunately the closet where it's stored is more chaotic right now than my desk ever was. I probably shouldn't go in without a rescue party on standby. :p

I'm right there with you on the clothes needing mending/altering/hemming and the sewing machine being inaccessible due to more...mess! :P
 
Kim, that's funny, I have to "fix" projects around my desk too. Oh and I always have a pair of socks... either I took them off because I was hot or B did.
 
Paperwork, Bills, and Coffee!!!! The first two I can do without but I needs my coffee fix every day! :)
 
I don't have a desk at home, but my desk at my office is usually pretty neat. I can't get a dang thing done if it's messy. But, there are usually a gajillion pens floating around, lists (currently I have a list on what we need to buy for our camper, what I need to stock in the camper, what I need to do after work today to get my kiddos ready for their spring program, a shopping list, a list of photos to print). Also my coffee mug, and 3 lotion bottles.
 
Cups for me, too. I just push one aside for another. At the end of the day I'm usually like "WTH!"
 
I don't have a dedicated desk at home, just a favourite chair. But on the table next to there is usually my phone and a drink of some kind (water, juice, sometimes a cup of tea).
 
I don't have a desk! Ha! Take that!

[Now the endtable next to the couch where I sit at night to scrap, however...]

This is me too! I have about 4 pair sitting in front of me right now..lol! My phone and camera are always here too along with a cup of tea or bottle of water. If my little one is roaming around, she might leave her sunglasses or a Barbie doll or 2 or 3.
 
At work I have a few mugs, lots of pictures and a bunch of toys. Gotta keep myself entertained! I also have a lot of mustaches right now because we just had a spirit week at work with Mustache Day.

At home, my desk is a two-snack table set up with my laptop, various plugs, USB drives, magazines, bills, mails and remote controls.
 
Coffee cup, water glass, reading glasses, memory cards, stickies and tons of handwritten notes.
