I hope the repairs go far faster than expected, and that something in your current room will inspire you.<br /><br />~DebbieDebbie Maxwell Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02533418585502995994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998863657658685998.post-5581016254612056632011-01-24T18:58:31.714-07:002011-01-24T18:58:31.714-07:00Right now I am in a temporary apartment while mine...Right now I am in a temporary apartment while mine is being repaired, and it's so true about your workspace setup effecting your productivity and concentration. While my productivity is still the same because I'm stubborn like that, I don't feel the same as I do in my office. I painted it my favourite colour blue, put in good lighting, a window treatment, and made sure that I have easy access to anything that I need. I also have a shelf of signed books from my clients nearby to stay inspired, and made sure to keep it nice and organized, so that way no matter what the rest of my apartment looked like, I had a little area that was always in order, lol!<br /><br />Now, I'm in a room that barely fits my computer, white walls, too much light (sometimes I can't see my computer screen very well), there's cords EVERYWHERE because I can't integrate everything the way that I need to since it's just a temporary space, and there's boxes of stuff from our other apartment that don't need to be unpacked that somehow ended up in here. It's just yucky. I'm pouting.<br /><br />I like the idea of keeping certain foods and drinks nearby--I was thinking of grabbing one of those little hot water dispensers for tea to make it feel more homey in here.

Just the other day I wrote down what steals my thunder. And top of the list? Light and temperature!
