Process Fest: Day 1 (a little late)

processfest, so I thought I'd join in.
Where do you create? What does your work space look like?
There was a time when I had a desk. Now that's take up with James' laptop, which is more of a really small desktop now, because the screen died just after the warranty came to end end and he has to use a separate screen in order to use it. Unfortunately the cable we have is one of those ones that has screws, so it doesn't fit properly and will fall out if you aren't very very careful with the keyboard draw, which is where James has the laptop itself. The screen is on the actual desk and then the shelf for the screen is covered with his paper work and a couple of bits of mine. He refuses to use my desk chair because he doesn't like it, so that's become a resting place for all sorts of things we haven't got around to putting away. So that's my old work space.
Now I have a netbook and my work space is wherever I happen to be with it. Occasionally that's upstairs, in the room James and I rent, sitting on the bed. Personally I don't find that as comfortable as some of the other places I work, mostly because I feel the urge to slouch more if I'm doing that, so I end up with back ache. (It was really bad when all I had was a bed to work at - as my desk chair wouldn't fit into the room.) At the moment I'm working in the kitchen, sitting at the breakfast bar, with the the lovely Tilly in her new bed (finally) and Bob wandering around the kitchen, because Russel went into the office.
Then my most recent semi-permanent place was the conservatory, but I don't use that as much any more. We have two long term day care dogs who have that as their room and that means we had to find another place for our regular. I did like the conservatory, because it was nice to be able to look at the garden, but it's not too much of a problem to move from there. I also used the lounge occasionally - most recently yesterday - because Russel and Teresa were getting the office ready.
So, now, my regular place will be the office, although not today, as there's still work to be done there. I have been in the office before and it's nice. Technically it's half of the garage, but we have a heater and I have a comfy chair that's good to work in, so I'm pretty happy to be working there. I'm just glad I have the netbook, otherwise I wouldn't be able to write.My desktop is still in pieces in the flat and we can't move James' laptop.
