My New Office and Staff

Thought I would check in to say hi and to share a few pics of my new office. My last day of work is tomorrow so I figured I had better get busy and organize myself at home. I tried to keep it simple.

Here is the view from my office window…

I think the assistant I’ve hired is going to work out great. She never hesitates to tell me what she thinks and doesn’t mind the long hours.

She has a bad habit of napping on the job though so we’re going to have to work on that one.

Seriously…I will actually be able to “work” from my back yard if I want to. I can’t really wrap my mind around that one yet.

I’ve given you some sneak peaks of how it looks around here. I will start telling you more about everything soon. Still haven’t hung that gallery wall in my entry or put the finishing touches on my back porch. I’ve got a fun July 4th front door basket and who knows…maybe some new cushion and pillow covers too.

Summer is here. Enjoy the long days. Take a break from the fast pace of your life and drink a long, tall glass of lemonade (spiked or not..that’s up to you!) out in your back yard. Or your front porch. Or wherever.

If you follow me on your blog roll or in a reader you might have to delete me and add me back. Sorry for the trouble. I’m over here at WordPress now and don’t want to lose you.

Thanks and see you soon.

    I love your new “office” and your assistant, too. I am so happy for you!

    Hi Ann, love your new office with the nice view. The lighting seems to be perfect for getting much work done. Your assistant probably thinks since she is so gorgeous, she doesn’t have to work, just make the place look good. Enjoy your new office and home! ———– Shannon

    This is my kind of office! Your assistant is pretty snazzy looking! Better keep an eye out or all your snacks will disappear!
    I’m sure you are excited about leaving your old job and also a bit apprehensive. I wish you the best on this new journey!
    Now you can devote more time to your parents and your personal life! It’s a good thing!

    The perfect assistant for a perfect office. Well, okay, maybe if your assistant could go get that lemonade for you . . .

    Best wishes on the new, non-office lifestyle!

    Love your helper! if I ever get another dog it will be a miniature schnauzer…they are just great! Ours is long gone and I still remember him fondly! Ours just never got the knack of alphabetical filing however……..

    Ann, I just adore your yellow umbrella! I painted 2 yellow lanterns today that would have looked great on your deck. Now they are white! I think you’ll get so much accomplished in your new office. How could you not with your extraordinary assistant!

    Your new office is too pretty, but I think your new office staff is the cutest! ;P

    Love your new office Ann and your assistant too!

    I posted the runner and towel today. Hope you like the presentation.:-)

    Enjoy your summer in your new office.

    I love your office, it looks a lot like mine this time of the year! Love the color of your umbrella too.

    Your back yard makes for a heavenly office. I could spend lots of time out there. And it does take some getting used to once you resign. It took me much of this school year to get used to being home. You’re going to love it!

    How fun to be able to work from home now! And what an adorable assistant, you really didn’t say what she does besides tell you what she wants and naps, but is she earning her keep?
    Have a wonderful week! I know it will be an enjoyable one, from your beautiful back porch.
    Hugs, Cindy
