not quite posie
but so much better.
before [including atypical chaos caused by the having to move stuff around to make room]:

see that little white triangle in the middle? that was my WHOLE desk. it might help explain why i made three grown women and one husband help me get this home in the middle of the night.

thank you, denny, emma, mel and ken. look what you did! all this space! happy sigh.
for those who love office pictures, a little peek [and yes, they're crappy pics. sorry. it's this or nothing today. :-)]
left to right, a wee panorama



and finally, here's the reason that a 70+ lb desk needed to be in my tiny office:

brand name "Invincible". made in Manitowoc, WI, in September 1956. there's a date painted inside. happy 50th birthday, desk. we'll be having a smudging ceremony soon.
happy.
p.s. they still make them. it's called the m-line desk. brand new, current cost is about $1200us. amortize that over 50 years and it's cheap!
