So, here I am at 9pm and, rather than missing a day, I’m resorting to prompts.
This is where I blog, edit, and design:
I can multitask doing just about anything. I can design, cook, photograph, and talk on the phone while watching TV.
And I can even do them simultaneously…. Umm wait, no. I don’t even want to know what that would look like.
I mean, obviously, something always gives when I multitask, but I can usually accomplish my tasks and block out distractions (ie TV). Not when it comes to reading or writing, though.
It doesn’t matter what’s on TV, unless maybe we’re talking about sports. I do like sports, but they don’t usually require my complete undivided attention to understand what’s going on.
So, I need a desk, and here it is. It’s in the TV room, so sometimes I still fail at blocking out distractions, but this set up helps me more than sitting on the couch.
What about you? Are you a good multitasker? Do you need a desk or an office?
I definitenly need an office. We have one but it is so cluttered that I just really don’t like working in there. I would love to redecorate it! I’m not bad a multi-tasking as long as the noise is mine. If my husband puts something on that I can’t stand I find it impossible to ignore for some reason.
That’s why my “office” is in the main living area, I don’t like feeling cooped up in a separate room. Our’s was always cluttered too when we had one and it felt like wasted space, so now it’s the baby’s room rather than having the boys share (3 bedrooms)
That’s funny about the noise! I’m actually funny about my husband eating when I’m trying to work. Something about hearing someone chew really annoys me when I’m trying to focus. I know it’s weird 🙂
