    Default I've got the desk in my bedroom cleaned off!

    And I'm sitting there typing away on my laptop. Okay... so the stuff I haven't yet put away (which is about 1/2 or 1/4 of what use to be on my desk) is in a couple "little" (each about the size to hold a ream of paper) boxes on the bed, which may get stashed on the floor in a corner when I need the bed. But, while I was moving the stuff to the boxes, I did put away a few things. Progress is progress... and I'll get a wee bit of exercise moving the boxes around!

    Good for you! I am in the middle of a "box shuffle". Hard to get it all settled at once. Like Nanatwo said, "baby steps". I keep telling myself that...it didn't happen overnight and I can't fix it overnight despite the fact I would like to. grin

    Great for you!! I am also working on cleaning off my computer desk, but it has become such a dumping ground for everything in our house, that things just tend to get moved to other parts of the house, in respective piles of course!! LOL!!!

    Keep going, pretty soon, it will ALL be clear and put away!!

    Congratulations! It's no small feat. My computer desk is in the dining room, right inside the front door (uuggghhh!). I can't keep it cleaned off no matter how hard I try.
