Home Office Epiphany

Saturday, January 5th, 2013. 

I woke up at 1 AM by noises outside of my home.  I couldn't go back to sleep, so I went to another room, turn my laptop on and read some blogs. One of my favorite, A Bowl full of Lemons.

After a few hours, I got sleepy again and went back to bed.  At almost 8 AM, my cell phone rings.  It was my husband calling me, to remind me that I needed to go to bank.  

So I planned my day, first I will go to the bank, then I will head over to church for the Confirmation class.

Everything went as planned, except for the fact that there was very few cars at church. I called the Faith Formation director to ask her if there was going to be class today.

She said, "Not today." 

I missed going to a very important event in Sacramento, because I didn't want to miss teaching the class for Confirmation.  AHH! I forgot we had two weeks off for the holidays. Forgetful Me.

I was very mad at myself. 

Ok, so now what should I do with the rest of my day?

The home office, the attic or son's room?

I decided on the home office.




Before transformation!

removed all items,
placed in bins or
put away where it belongs

After 6 hours of work,
the final result:


Moved Computer desk to opposite wall.

With this last picture I conclude this post.

Merry Christmas!

Hi, Everyone!

As I write this post, I'm sitting on a train going to see my family in the San Joaquin Valley.  I decided to take train, because I saw an accident on the freeway this morning.  My sister was going to drive to my house and take us back.  But I did not want her to drive to get us.  The drive is about an hour.  So that will take us all morning to get there.  So I just packed my bags and asked my sister in law to drop us off at the station that is just 5 minutes away from my home.

The ride on the train is about an hour and a half.  I like that is more comfortable than a car trip.  We have access to wifi.  The weather outside of our window view is cloudy.  We are close to reaching another train station.  Then we just have about 30 minutes more to get to our destination.

My sister will be picking us up there, and the drive to the house is just about 15 minutes.  I will be posting more later.  And upload pictures of our Christmas day at my parents' home.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas. May the love of Jesus embrace you today.
