No love



That's what our home office gets from me. We don't entertain in here, I haven't really felt like allocating any money to the cause, I have no plan for the decor yet, and neither of us work from home... thus, no love. Nick will be starting grad school in July for his masters in business and might actually start using the office then, maybe by that time I will start caring a little more about this abandoned room in our new home.

I'm keepin' it real as always , letting you in on pics of our hot mess. Nothing was picked up or put away, nothing staged, just a huge pile of junk thrown into a room where we think it may "go" one day.


It needs organization, window treatments, color, art... i.e. LOVE!!!!!

What's that you say? You want a tour of our office knick-knacks?

Sure thang, y'all!




First on the tour: "The Roberts Family Travels and Adventures" with push pins in the places we've been together - we sooo need to go more places. We're working on this one.


Also making the wall of fame, Nick's bachelor's diploma from Georgetown.
You go, guy! =)


And of course, my Sigma Kappa sorority paddle.
{It will hang on the closet door as long as I keep holding tight my youth. The day it comes down is the day I accept my grown-up status.}




In case you haven't met, my crazy little pharmacist-lady-person that my mom gave me at the beginning of pharmacy school lives in the office as well. Someone advised my class to study for the boards by talking out loud or pretending to "teach" someone the material. So I've been talking to crazy Sally lately when I study. Which makes me, crazy Stephanie.


And then there's my diploma. I've got the frame, now all I need is the matting. It then can be finished and hung proudly on the wall to be displayed in front of the tens of zeros of people who step into our office on a daily basis.



Don't even comment, I know it's a hot mess!

Maybe you'd like to reminisce in the memories of better rooms in our home-in-progress:

We've got a great weekend coming up! VERY POSSIBLY, some good pictures and stories to tell when we get back!

~Love in the Dove~

{A very Sigma Kappa sorority thing to say...}

  8. I attended Georgetown College as well. . .1997 would have been when I would have graduated, however I moved states and graduated from Sienna Heights University in Michigan. I lived in Shelbyville and graduated from Shelby Co. High School! My Dad and Step-Mom still live in the area, and I have a ton of friends there! It seemed funny to see the Georgetown College stuff! Small world!

    Be Blessed!

  13. As my office is really just a desk in the corner of my bedroom I spend way too much time there. And it gets pretty messy too.

  17. Just received a check for $500.

    Sometimes people don't believe me when I tell them about how much you can earn filling out paid surveys online...

    So I took a video of myself actually getting paid $500 for participating in paid surveys.

I just shared my thoughts, I'd love to hear you share yours! {Besides, I'm tired of listening to the voices in my head.} I kid, I kid... ;)
