On my desk

[Karen]

Just for fun - what's one thing on your desk, besides your computer?

Post just one thing per post, it'll be fun to hear what unusual items, or fun ones, Pet Talkers have.

1. A pretty cardboard box of old buttons that, when opened, smells like Aunt Bertha always did - it held some Cody powder at its inception, many, many years ago, and still retains the scent!

[sparks19]

Beads... but not sure if that counts because you will find beads on almost any surface in my house lol. they are taking over.

[Freedom]

Nothing interesting here. Modem / router combination from Verizon. Box of tissues. That's it.

Oh and the screen!

It's a computer desk. :D

[Pinot's Mom]

One thing? Home desk, not work desk? Lemme think...

a "secretary" - a wooden portable desk unit no more than 8" square that folds in two and buckles with drawers and partitions that hold desk items. I hope I described that accurately!

It's hard to pick one thing but as they are all right in front of me I have to pick my Easter fluffy chicks (you know those little fluffy things you get at Easter? Well I have normal ones, wool ones, sparkly ones, some with hats and sun glasses and even fluffy pigs! I got them at Easter and decided they were too cute to put away so I stuck them to the bottom of my screen with blue tac :))

[Catherinedana]

If I have to say ONE thing that's on the desk next to this computer (work) I'll tell about the little ceramic girl-clown holding a balloon with a rabbit face on it.
