These are the cute people who keep entering my office and asking for food, money, help with their homework, etc . . . They have a gift for interrupting that is uncanny. Every time inspiration hits they are magnetically drawn to me. I love this picture. My husband said something funny and we all laughed.
This is my messy desk. I write here each day. Sometimes I accomplish a lot and other times I get distracted.
This bookcase hinders my concentration since I love to read, and it's just sitting there looking interesting. My muse, Daniel Craig, reminds me each day that work comes before the reward. Darn you, Daniel. I'd take a good book over almost anything.
These are bleeding hearts. They bloom outside my office window in the Spring.
This is the Japanese Maple that softens the light through my plantation shutters. I feel protected with this leafy beauty guarding me.
Have an awesome afternoon, bloggers!

I love the green you have near your writing space. I need a bit of green too!
ReplyDeleteI am IN LOVE with your desk! oooooh it's so awesome! *jealous*
ReplyDeleteYou have a fine looking desk -- very writerly looking! As for your fabulous bookcase, all I can say is I wish I had 1 half as elegant!
ReplyDeleteWow, your desk looks very serious, and by that I mean very inspirational and like a whole lot gets done there. I love it! I, too, would be distracted by the bookcase....books-pretty close to manna!
ReplyDeleteI loved the part about your husband's eyes being the blame for your beautiful family. They look like they're having fun!
Thanks for stopping by and following! Now stalking you:)
I love your desk, and your bookcase. If only I had enough room for another bookcase . . .
ReplyDeleteYou have a beautiful family!
Very cool! What a neat blogfest!!
ReplyDeleteVery, very nice! I can see how that bookcase is a major distraction. And I love the Japanese maple--it's beautiful! Everyone could use a little green in their writing space, I think.
ReplyDeleteI love your writing area...it looks exactly as a writing area should look. Complete with post-its on the monitor and all. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope life is treating you and your lovely family well, Roxy.
Hugs,
Lola
Beautiful desk, Roxy! And I love LOVE the first photo of this post. Priceless!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Writing!
I love all the foliage! I have a ravine outside my room - a whole wall is a sliding glass door thing - but I hardly ever look out because....unlike your lovely greenery, mine is dark and uninviting and my imagination conjures a whole cast of horrors.... yeah, not cool.
ReplyDeleteYour bookcase is beautiful.
I can tell you write at your desk because it looks lived in... the only reason mine is so neat is because I like never sit there. I only sit down when I want to look at my fantasy books.....
Messy desks are the best kind of desks. I will admit to doing quite a bit of tidying (read: pushing mess out of shot) before I took the photo for my blogfest post!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great Halloween.
Love that you consider the plants part of your space, and I also love the nice, substantial desk. That's a rich atmosphere!
ReplyDeletewow!!! Look at your amazing desk!! It's sturdy and strong and screams out "write on me now!!!"!! Wow!!
ReplyDeleteThat bookcase full of books is a worthy treat!! I applaud Mr Craig for rationing this out!! :-) What a harsh task master!!!
Awww your beautiful children are adorable!!!
And that is one STUNNING Japanese maple!!
Thanks for sharing these amazing pics! Take care

Gorgeous! Look at all that lovely green.. and the beautiful books... and the adorable children.
ReplyDeleteSIGH! :)
I love your desk, and your bookshelf! It looks like an excellent place to work, complete with wonderful distractions! Good luck with NaNo!
ReplyDeleteI love all of the trees and shrubs you have near your writing space. I live on the 3rd floor and as winter approaches it's just so sad not to have a tree to look at anymore :-( Your family is huge! And adorable!
ReplyDeleteYou have a really nice writing spot, Roxy. I adore that pic of your little interruptors.
ReplyDeleteJai
What a beautiful family!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the bookcase. I totally understand why it distracts you.
Nice views. I wish I had views.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
I LOVE your photographs. I like the personal touch on a blog. This is personal and cozy.
ReplyDeleteI re-signed in as a follower because a glitch in my blog forced me to delete it and create a new one, with almost the same title; I exported and then imported everything, but you don't get your followers back! But I did copy out the list of Blogs I'm Following. Now I just have to let everyone know what happened so they’ll be able to find.
I hope you'll click on my signature link here and come over and follow me again. I don’t want to lose you!

Ha! Great writing space, but I read your profile and where I really felt the connection is as a displaced oregonian--it is my favorite state, yet here I am in Michigan...
ReplyDeleteThe desk and bookcase - Move over Ernest Hemingway!
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice writing space! :) Thanks for dropping by my blog :)
ReplyDeleteLove your pictures. Gorgeous family! :O)

ReplyDeleteI miss having a desk to write on. *sigh*
Very creative looking environment!
ReplyDeleteAwww...you have a beautiful family! Your furniture is gorgeous and I love all the books. Great space!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving this blogfest!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous desk--I love the trees outside mine, too, so I can identify.
You temptress, bookcase, with all your...books.
Love the bike helmet in the office! Mine's messier. I have four interrupters and a cat. Cute photo!
