Feng shui for the office

My dad and brother came to visit today, so I didn't get as much work done as I had planned. It was well worth it though, because I had such a good time.

My dad brought me a belated birthday present, too. He found an old museum-type office chair and has been refinishing it for me. I love it. It looks very similar to the chair in the picture, but it's solid wood.

The desk in the background looks a lot like my desk, too. I inherited the desk from Zia, who inherited it from her former business partner. I like that it’s been handed from one writer to another and passed along at just the time it’s needed. If and when I replace it, I hope to carry on the tradition.

On the topic of home offices, I finally found some book shelves at Ikea, which will make my office much more comfortable. However, the model I liked was temporarily out of stock. Somehow even without having book shelves to install, I still managed to procrastinate a while with several feng shui cures from Creating Sacred Space with Feng Shui. (See an interesting article on good and bad procrastination).

While Creating Sacred Space is a great book, an even better one is Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui.
