Perhaps you would like to see a picture of my desk? I have seen a few bloggers posting pictures and descriptions of their own workspaces lately.

There are a few unusual objects here. I don’t know why there are binoculars on the desk. Probably for no other reason than that is just where I happened to set them down.

On the shelf is an unusual clock with all the numbers settled at the bottom. You can’t see this but at the top it says “whatever!” Despite the expressed philosophy, it’s the only clock in our house that seems to keep the correct time. Sitting in front of it is a plaster wolf’s head that I painted as a project in Cub Scouts when I was about 8 years old. I came across it recently in a box of old stuff that my mother had saved. Funny the stuff that mothers save. That’s Mom in the picture.

The little bowl is filled with buckeye seeds. Fun to look at and play with.

To the left of the clock is my new indoor-outdoor thermometer. As you can tell it is 70 degrees indoors with a relative humidity…
