Major Desk Success

One of the hot spots in our house is our computer desk. It is just the catch all for everything. It is in a central location in the kitchen. It collects paper, mail, books, pens and pencils, dishes, toys, tools, and every other little knickknack. Friday we cleaned and sorted out baskets that were supposed to help prevent that clutter build up and reassigned the baskets new jobs. We cleaned off the desk surface and moved the computer tower to a place where it will be less likely to have stuff piled on top of it. I dusted everything and feel confident that we are in good shape to keep it clear.

Our hope is to find a nice secretary desk that can accommodate our computer monitor and that had a door that closes. That door will serve several purposes: (1) Prevent us from having an open surface upon which to immediately think we can put something, even just for a minute--it is never just a minute (2) Curb our mindless computer use a bit. I find my self on the computer just because sometimes. I would like my computer time to be a little bit more deliberate. I think it will be one of those out of sight out of mind sort of things.
