I have to tell you, I'm not doing very well this morning. I had 10 days off of work, and I was really looking forward to them. I wasn't actually planning on doing a lot, I wanted to clean up Maddox's room, which I did, and I decided I wanted to figure out an office space for me, which I did, and am not thrilled about.
Yes, that's my linen closet. The thing that I don't like is that the shelf is too high. I am currently sitting on two pillows and a pile of puzzle floor mat things, and am still too short. And it's slightly too short for a standing desk, although that actually might be better than the way too high for sitting desk.I have been really, really dreading starting my practicum (internship) for school. I start next week and I already feel overwhelmed and depressed. I have 10 month of this and I honestly don't know how i will do it. I just want to go curl up in a ball and sleep, which is honestly what I did most of this last weekend. 795 days of running and depression may cause me to miss a day.
That's all I have for today. I was going to do an end of the year recap, but that will have to wait.

I am so sorry you are feeling down! ~~hugs~~
ReplyDeleteCould you build a temporary base on the floor in the office/closet? Two by fours (or two by eights if you need 8 inches versus 4 for the height) and just nail together a rough square/rectangle base and then nail some plywood on top for the bade/floor. Just put a lip or something so you don’t roll off backwards!
That's a good idea, but I don't think it will work as the closet is so small, my chair is in the hallway.
DeleteCan you lower that shelf, or get one of those desks that installs on a wall and folds down, then back up when you are done, and don't use the closet at all?
ReplyDeleteI looked into those a lot. I actually had an idea to build one myself, but this was easier, and cheaper. I also didn't want to spend a lot of money because I have a desk (an old antique roll-top desk) that I'm going to get from my family just haven't been able to because of COVID.
