he fresh start that a new year
promises has arrived! January
brings the crisp air of an Alabama
winter, and with it, the opportunity to
change my wicked old ways and get my life
in order. Whether it’s your diet, budget, or
basic daily routines that needs a makeover
this is the year to pull it together.

If you’re like me, life sometimes feels
like a pinball machine bouncing from
responsibility A to responsibility D to
laundry to responsibility B to cooking
dinner and finally landing on the couch for

television. My answer to the chaos? A clean
and organized work space to sort out what
life throws at me. Who’s in?

have one, try the thrift store or build your
own! The folks at shanty-2-chic.com shared
their plans for what they call a $60 computer
desk. Click on the photo for a link.
