Bloggers at Work
Laurin has a great meme going on today called “Bloggers at Work – How Do You Do What You Do ?” where bloggers post their personal blog/internet/work space. I thought it was pretty cool and a way to show people that I am not in fact posting from some hoarder’s heaven but from a real house. Heh. Pardon the mess.
Most of the time, I am in my home office on my iMac, TV on, surrounded by terriers. Out the blinds is my front yard and our neighborhood is pretty high, and during the winter I can look out and see across towards Birmingham. To my left is a bookcase full of books and knick -knacks, and behind me is a leather chair and ottoman where I watch TV sometimes. Next to that is a smaller wooden roll-top desk that was my granny’s where I keep mail, stuff to do and assorted paperwork and junk . I call it messy desk. There’s also the obligatory cork board on the wall with a calendar and place where I put appointment cards, reminders, and stuff I think is cool.
I don’t know why I don’t have a picture of my entire bookcase, but here’s a smidge of it …..
I also use my iPad quite a bit now, so much so that I don’t even have a MacBook anymore. I usually use it in the kitchen while I’m cooking, eating or whatever. The dogs follow me in there too. That’s where the cheese lives. I also use it in the media room.
When the weather is nice I sit out on my front steps and look out while the boys run around in the yard. There’s an iron chair out there that rocks and is comfortable, usually I just Tweet or answer emails from here. You can’t really see the chair in this pic, but you get the idea.
Of course normally I’m looking at this…
“Is it time for cheese yet?”
So that’s where I “work” at home. I can’t post pictures of where I really work for real, but I don’t blog from there so I guess it doesn’t really count.
Thanks for stopping by, please comment and do the meme as well so I can see where you work !





















You have a beautiful home Kim!
Just wondering, does the stand your iPad is in charge it?
I love that your desk is by a window. I really must find a better spot for my desk.
You’re making me want an iPad! aarrgghh I’ve been resisting, just as I (foolishly) did with the iPhone. Love your pretty house!
Lava lamp FTW!
when you let me use your pretty imac it was the first time i had ever touched one. fortunately your desk is very comfortable and i felt right at home. you are a terrific apple ambassador.
anyhow, loved seeing these photos…fun meme!
Beautiful home…would love to see more pics!
I love your bookcase!!! I want a whole room like that someday. Also, your dog is adorable. If my dogs weren’t such jerks they would bond with yours over their love of cheese. You have a beautiful home!!!
You have a beautiful home. I think you need to give the dogs more cheese!
I love that view — I would be working out there constantly, too!
Nice place you got there!
well at least now I know my evac plan if a cat3 or higher comes straight on or to my west a tad.
next time you’re in town let me know because even though I aint no GB girl I know we know some of the same people and I have some stories for you ! Also I am totally not jealous of the mac and the ipad thing, just because I am using dixie cups with paper clips and dental floss hooked to tin foil on a metal lawn chair on my roof to have any technology. Nope not jealous at all. Ok I lie, totally friggin jealous…
Wow.. and all I have is a laptop and comfy chair..oh and coffee. btw.. LOVE the Buddhas. I collect them.
NOW – did I win???
What a lovely home you have, lady! I love the view… glad I don’t have to mow your lawn though!!
I want your kitchen. Or rather, the cleanliness of your kitchen.
Lovely, warm home. I like you even more now that I know you have a Yankees book and leather bound ones too. Thanks for sharing your life.
Nice photos of your work area and home. I see the iPad goes into multiple locations.
