Thirteen Things On My Desk
[This is a sequel to Thirteen Things on my Bulletin Board to prove to you all that I’m really not as organized as you think I am]
1. An empty SOLO plastic cup [for holding small objects so they don’t get lost]
2. Three pennies
3. A torn bank receipt
4. A staple remover
5. The earphones to my MP3 player [but not the MP3 player itself]
6. My biosphere [containing three live brine shrimp]
7. Five packets of flower seeds [they were 5 for $1.00, I couldn’t resist]
8. Half a pack of spearmint gum
9. A crochet basket I made that holds my jump drive and the cable for my digital camera
10. A pottery jar that says VACATION FUND [currently holds $4.00]
11. A sample packet of moisturizer
12. My WIP
13. The miniature Chappa’ai from my broken Stargate SG-1 key chain

I think you made up some of those things so we didn't think you were a neat freak ;)
Is it sad I really want to know what kind of flower seeds? And the thought of live shrimp kinda creeps me out?
Happy Thursday, Jen.
how do you make a crocheted basket - i keep picturing uber floppiness.
I like the idea of the Vacation fund jar. I think I'll start one of those.
You must have a very neat desk to be able to list this stuff. I look at mine and my list would be one item - junk.
Grace Draven
2 Forget-me-nots, 2 marigolds, 1 lavendar. ;)
The shrimp are kinda cute - and the best part is, no maintenance.
Rhian, the crochet basket is a little floppy, but I used a cotton yarn which is stiffer so it stands up pretty well.
LOL Grace, I had to sift through papers to FIND the stuff first. Trust me, it's not neat - AND I forgot to list the most prominent item on my desk - DUST.
Four whole bucks, eh? That's gonna be one heckuva vacation! LOL!
LOL - nice. I have, like, 4 undiscarded cans of pop on my desk, half full. Nice. :D
I'm with Grace... I could a TT for a year with the accumulated junk on my desk... great list
All I have in my desk is the computer and all the peripherals (like zip disk, card reader, etc.)
I could use a plastic cup to hold all the little things on my desk. It would really clean it up quite a bit. That and I'd love to get rid of the pile of "stuff" that seems to be growing.
You'd best get to work on that vacation fund! Add those three pennies! :o)
So sad about the key chain :-(
Love it!! Of course, I don't have desk ... I write on a laptop on a lap desk in my recliner ... Talk about decadent! *LOL*
LOL Great list, but your desk still sound pretty clean and organized to me. :)
great, that is where I keep my headphones too!
You have a Stargate keychain!!? Everyday I know you you get cooler. LOL {but I'm serious} :)
I can totally relate. I have a clear path between me and the monitor, but to either side... Watch out! It's dangerous in here! LOL
So how long have you been saving toward that vacation...? :D
My desk has so much stuff on it, it has branched out to small "personal" tables which are also now filled to overflowing. I'm going to clean it all off when I finish my next set of edits. Really! I really am!
Happy TT!
#1 made me laugh. That sounds organised to me!!
Amending the vacation fund to $4.03 which will buy several post cards, hence making people THINK I've been somewhere far away.
Tempest, you're too neat. You've got to rough it up a bit.
RG, I HAD a Stargate Keychain, now I just have the remains.
Denise, I used to have personal tables too. I like to make piles of things and they do tend to branch out until they're all over the place.
I don't have a desk at home..but my workdesk is pretty organized. AND I have an "EASY" button from Staples....so eener neener neener.
My son has an Easy button - but we had to take the batteries out because it got real annoying after a while. ;) Of course, when you're 9 and Mom cooks and cleans for your, life is pretty darn easy.
OOO where did you get the Chappa eye key chain? I soooo want one LOL
Great List.
Aline
Um, that actually sounds like stuff that BELONGS on a desk. I could totally do this and it would sound really bizarre.
Great list, Jennifer.
I can't have a biosphere. I'd probably cause Armageddon in it.
Where did I get the Chappa'ai? Hmm...my husband brought it home from somewhere, not a Stargate convention, though. I may start hunting for another one. If I find a place that has them, I'll let you know.
I'm too afraid to check what's buried beneath the piles on my desk. Who knows what I might uncover. Sometimes ignorance really is bliss. :-)
Thanks for stopping by. Happy TT.
My 1st TT was actually on a Friday, and I did the same thing. I wonder what other people have on their desks??
Hey, you could buy a gallon of gas with that vacation fund. Won't get you very far, but still! :D
LOL at Shari's comment -- maybe we should do an RD theme sometime and everyone lists items on their desk that week. Could be interesting! Hehe...
#7: We keep thinking of planting seeds, but we can't even keep the potted plants alive for more than a few days. :(
I'd like to see the Stargate keychain too. :)
