The Annals of the extremely diverse, artistic, literary, and musical lifestyle of a Charlotte Mason education-loving family. Our philosophy, even though our children are all grown now, is to allow for time and space in each day to be present for those memorable moments; the ones both on and off the calendar.

What's on Your Desk?
Mother Auma has posed a new question: "What's on Your Desk."
Mine is an intriguing mix, very much like my life. I have to make use of vertical storage space in our small cottage.
~I have a lot of Spanish resources, as you can imagine...but I don't store all my Spanish books and CD's here. They are on a bookshelf on the other side of the room.
~directly by my keyboard is today's grocery/shopping list.
~near my monitor are co-op class budget sheets that have to be turned in this Friday.
~ Also have a couple of my grade matrix sheets,
~ a symphony playbill
~ a "Look, I Can Talk" TPR storytelling book, Spanish edition
~ Under the playbill is an old hymnal.
~ Behind that is a box of old disks that have backed up files on them from my years as our homeschool group's first secretary, newsletter editor, and new homeschoolers' speaker/writer.
~ off to the left is a copy of our marriage license and passport and some other paperwork I needed recently.
~ Son's diploma is behind the speaker.
~ You can also see my collection of CM volumes, pens, pencils, blank CD's, telephone, a couple of Bibles.
~ Several silver bracelets and my glasses, which I cannot wear when I am on the computer.
~ A map of Germany
~ misc. post-it note reminders
~ CD Resource set that goes with my High School "Ven Conmigo" program. It contains lesson plans, answer keys, test generators, video clips, audio clips and more!
~ misc. copies of Ven Conmigo student homework sheets which I've been working on
~ A Jane Austen Biography
~ Cards from friends
~ photos
~ candles
~ camera lens
~ Software (at the very back) that is hardly ever used.
~ IKEA basket to the left, full of family photos
~ Mexican money
~ pressed, framed wildflowers
~ My prayer list is on the chalkboard to the left.
~ Co-op calendar is posted above that on the corkboard.
~ Bookbinding jobs/clients list is just above that
~ Bible verse quote and
~ family photos are posted on the bulletin board on the right.
Now, what's on your desk? I'm glad I have doors on mine!! LOL

You did it!
Hey, your desk looks great. So organized!
Hmmm....don't think I have a desk, come to think of it. My desk is my laptop - and wherever I park myself with it - kitchen table, the end of the couch by the endtable, sometimes the bed...I even offically have a desk at 'my office' at church, but I'm seldom there.
But YOUR desk looks inviting - and organized! :-)
