Last week Charles Yallowitz tagged me in a blog hop. It’s to show a picture and talk about your workplace. Then I get to nominate some other bloggers to do the same. 🙂
So this is it: the photo on the left is my desk with my pink (yes pink!) laptop where I work. (As well as my pink camera and phone case! Yes all right, I do have a thing for pink – I just like the colour!) And no the desk isn’t always that tidy lol! I’ve had to play around with how I position everything because I was getting an aching back and limbs.
I got myself the most expensive desk chair that Ikea do, as well as a footrest, stand for my laptop and plug-in keyboard. So now I only get a slightly aching back at times! Honestly I would say I have terrible posture – I never seem to get it right at home or at work.
Anyway my desk is at one end of the dining room, facing the window where I can see our lovely trees at the end of our drive. We are in the middle of a city, but it is a leafy one and I love it! So the view from my desk isn’t half bad. 🙂
I try to write whenever I feel able – I’d like to say I write every day but it just doesn’t happen. I’ve got this lingering virus which isn’t helping at the moment either. Last week I was away for a few days. Hubby, dog and I went down to Cornwall (SW England) for a couple of nights, which was lovely but did mean that I didn’t get any writing done. After that I felt unwell so today is my first writing day for a week!
So that’s me. Here’s the list of bloggers I’m nominating. Apologies if you’ve already done it – I will totally understand if you don’t want to do it again!

Sounds like you’ve got a great view from your window. Hope you feel better!

Thank you, I hope so too! Yes it is a great view, especially considering it’s a quite a densely populated part of the world! 🙂

Is that the dog from ‘Up’?

It is indeed! And we’ve got a real one too – about a year after that film came out (which we loved – it’s my favourite animated film of all time!) we got our real golden retriever and named him Dug after the dog in Up! I have to say the dog in Up is better behaved than ours!!! :-p
We’ve also got a bigger toy Dug – one that when you press his paw he says things and barks and so on! (Yes we are big kids!)

How does the real Dug get along with the talking plush Dug?

He’s a bit unsure of it lol. Dug (the real one!) is generally a confident dog, was absolutely awful as a puppy (couldn’t do anything with him), is much better now but sometimes gets a bit unnerved by something if he’s not sure what it is/does. He also likes to bark at the neighbour’s dogs (though they do set him off) and he barks if anything’s out of the ordinary – like hot air balloons! 🙂
Do you have any pets?

That’s a lot of pink! 😀 I can imagine having such bright equipment must help keep you smiling 🙂
Hope you feel better soon, having a virus can be really demotivating!

It is a lot of pink! I just like the colour. Yes, I’m hoping to be well soon. Sometime this century would be nice lol! 🙂

I feel the same way about turquoise. It’s lovely to have turquoise touches all through my windowless little study. I love that you have trees in a city. Cities need trees.
In my experience, retrievers are incredibly boisterous pups, but settle after about age 2. My daughter would love a golden, but we’ve been spoiled by our Vizsla/pit bull mix, who has a short and simple coat…
Sending you lots and lots of healthy thoughts! =D

Your healthy thoughts are working! And I agree – turquoise is a lovely colour. When I was buying this laptop I was torn between it and the turquoise one.
Yes, cities definitely need trees! A short and simple coat on a dog is nice… but I do love cuddling my dog’s silky, soft furry coat!
