This year, well I guess technically last year, for Christmas I decided to "give" my parents a Photo-A-Day blog. I would have started on January 1st, but my camera was in my desk at work (cue today's photo):
Yup, it's a pretty legit desk. Technically it's the Executive Director's desk, but we haven't had one of those in the past year so it's mine. It has a lot of fancy drawers and such, but we don't have file folders anymore (oh the thrills of working at a small nonprofit) so the top is a bit messy. Actually, I take that back. Rather, the desktop is "organized chaos" because I know where everything is.
On the desk you'll find clues to my job:
- The neighbor contact info that's all over the bulletin board (Working with neighbors and block club groups to do all sorts of things! Clean out an alley? Why yes! Design a site plan for a vacant lot? Why yes!)
- The Styrofoam house that's supposed to teach kids about alternative energy but that I can't fit together (Coordinating a weekly after school program for elementary school kids)
- The gardening gloves in the bottom right from a work day a bit ago, but are always handy to have on . . . hand (Pull weeds, plant a garden, stake a tree, the list goes on)
- Et cetera (My ever changing job)
(I promise to post more interesting photos throughout the year! Today's been a lot of behind the scenes work, so I didn't have many other potential subjects.)
