WOYWW... OR... WOYFW...

Mmmm, I know, I have said for weeks now that next week the desk (and room) will be tidy... eeeerm, Room of Stash? More like Room of Trash LOL So, what am I on about? Well, being as it is Wednesday it can only mean.. it is time for What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday, a marathon hop around the blogasphere, noseying, I mean looking, at everyone's desks. The hop starts at Head of the Dept for Curious Desk Inspectors, Julia, all the deets are on her blog for you to be able to join in, tis great fun ;o))


*please excuse the dodgy camera angle... same as last week, no room in front of the desk LOL Oh and... the stuff on the desk, all from yesterday's crafty session, not tidied away and my sketch for my CCC tag too... lazy Hels!*

So... the WOYFloorW today is actually showing the little route from the door to the desk... I have bags not unpacked from the weekend of classes, mountboard that needs to be put away and stuff that is awaiting attention... I am so going to tidy up today... I am ... I need to, I can't find my Mojo when the room is this bad!



Also on my desk today is a rather GORGEOUS pressie that came all the way from Annette in Canada. It is a little list holder made from a BIA wire - I have been using one just as it is for storing notes and lists on my desk and Annette did the same, so she, being uber talented, made a little box for it to stand on... and inside is a gorgeous little book of saying, which is perfect. Also in the parcel was a little package for AlfieCat who now lurves his Aunty Annette because there were treats in the box for him. In fact, he loves them that much I have had to pop them on the top shelf of the cupboard because he was opening the door and trying to help himself!! (not to mention that he "helped" me unpack my pressie and then shoved the box around the kitchen with his nose... sniffing out those treats!)




Anyways... time for me to get that *whispers* vaccuum and sort out the mess in my room, wish me luck, I may be some time LOL Thanks for looking... have a brill day! TTFN

I'm glad to see Annette's gift made it. Did Alfi cat get a gift too? I know she said she might have to remove it. Hope your back is doing well this week. It looks like you're going to need it if you plan to vacuum. I'm sending words of encouragement before you start the tidy up. Have a lovely day, dear, and don't work too hard at "housework."

Joanne said...

Your pressies look fab. Don't envy you the clean up. Somehow I seem to have developed a massive dislike to housework!!
Luv Joanne xx

Helen said...

Wow, gorgeous pressies, lucky you (and Alfie). You are right, that is one messy floor.... bit like mine, rofl, though your mess is in bags and boxes..... have a good day.

All looks busy and I love the pressie.

Good luck on the clean up! Wednesdays must be a catalyst to get organized (sometimes)...cute little houses on your shelf and sweet goodies from your pals!

I am so happy the box arrived intact and Alfie opened it for you LOL!! Hels, can you actually get your elgs in under your desk? It looks a little stacked up under there... kinda like the rest of your floor! It has snowed all night so I will be back clearing the driveway again today!!

Sherry Goodloe said...

You're still on the computer reading all of the comments when you should be tidying up Missy! And who am I to talk?! LOL

Hope your back is better. I'm continuing to heal nicely and will be returning to "the day job" on the 29th. Right when I'm starting to ENJOY being off work *sigh*

Stop by between projects and say hello - I'm #118 this week

Artyjen said...

Good job you and me don't share a house Hels or there would be no room at all on any floor or worktop or ....well you get my drift? ! HOL
xoxo Sioux
P.S. My dyson has been overhauled and made better but I'd hate to overwork him!

Spyder said...

yes, when he said seagull, that's what I thought he meant! so of course I had to go out and see!

Pam said...

I'm seeing a lot of beds and floors today! Must be that time of year ;D

Pressies! How fun! And so thoughtful too.

WoYceilingW for next week? See ya then :D

donna said...

I talk to Amy often ( by email as most of our conversations are not suitable for public blog comment boxes) and we have a level of understanding most people do not achieve - I was laughing so much at her comment that I fell off my chair - and she knows how I will react, so she tells me her thoughts, she is also -like me- completely barking - ha ha (dog type reference get it? ) not sure if I need to close my brackets again)

any hoo - it will be you falling over/down again if you don't tidy up those health and safety risks scattered about your floor! tidy up mississs ha aha says miss messy queen of all messes

Scrapcollectr said...

Carola Bartz said...

Your posts always put a smile on my face, no matter how cranky I might feel (I'm NOT cranky this morning though). Love your messyness!! Oh, and this lovely pressie from Annette - SWEET!!!

Carol D said...

Your desk looks fine to me, everything at hand. Not sure about the floor, if I leave things on the floor i trip over them or run them over with my swivel chair.

Thanks for visiting my workdesk.

Zue said...

Thanks for the comment...made me laugh...you are so funny. I can see the path to the door in your room.
Have a great week.
Sue xx

Shoshi said...

Only averagely messy, I should say, Hels!! As for your pressies - well, gorgeous!!! I love the idea for the note holder. What a clever idea! Give your kitty a stroke from me. One of mine has just jumped up demanding to be warmed up.

Andrea - Wales, UK said...

Fab pressies, I seen them on Annette's blog a few weeks ago - great idea :)

Have a fab week...A.xx(2)

Kym's Crafty Cards said...

Hels, Certainly a busy desk/floor area here but lots of nice things have been brought out to play with. I'm sure everyone on the WOYWW will offer to come around and help tidy up!!! Thanks for sharing your workspace with us. Best wishes, Kym xxx (WOYWW No 34)

Ciara said...

I think you should stop giving yourself a hard time about your messiness - you've been too busy!

Julia Dunnit said...

I'm the same Hels - it may have to get to a ridiculous stage, but there is a stage at which I cannot do anything else before a big ol tidy up. Getting close myself, I have to say!!

Susan said...

Hi Hels,
Thanks for sharing! Now I don't feel so bad about all my piles of 'creativity' on the floor and on the spare chairs etc...Susan xxox #17
