Lightening my life
Thoughts for today
Feeling the space I've made after rearranging the office space and uncluttering more belongings
The cat has taken over my new BeYou chair, despite providing an even nicer space for her to sit. My cats are a regular reminder that change cannot be forced.
Rearranging office spaceλ︎
Even though I have multiple monitors and laptops in the boxy room that is my home office, rearranging a few items has really maximised the space. I have plenty of room for the laptop I will used for the new company I will work for.
ThingyClub mounting arms are used for monitors and laptops to minimise desk space use, especially for the LG 34" ultra-wide monitor used as a second monitor.
Keyboard.io is used as an external keyboard, using a USB switch to toggle attachement to work and personal laptop. A Logitech bluetooth trackball is used for the few times I need a mouse, although only really for browsers and video editing.
The keyboard and trackball rest on a Grandma Shark bamboo wood laptop desk that sits on top of a corner shaped office desk to create a standing desk position.
The BeYou chair kneeling position is ideal for the same the standing desk position the Grandma Shark desk provides.
NOTE: when I was ill with Covid I used the Grandma Shark desk in bed to be able to do a little bit of work in-between sleeping and coughing.
Recyclingλ︎
The freecycle website is very convienient to find a new life for unwanted items. It seems to be a more useful service during the warmer months, as more recently people are saying they are interested in items but then not turning up.
A have a small collection of items that hopefully I can give away before starting the new job next week.
More parcel madnessλ︎
Evri (formerly Hermes) delivery service continue to meet my very low expectations and completely failed to turn up today, saying they couldnt get access to the property. No one knocked or rang the front door, so either they didnt turn up or went to the wrong location.
I am not planning on using WeBuyBooks again and will stick with MusicMagpie (who use DHL) and Zwifit (local collection lockers) for future book, DVD and video game sales.
