Well, sort of.
Half of the entire upstairs floor of our Cape Cod house is dedicated to my office and the other half is for my daughter and her toys. It's ok. I don't mind sharing. The room is big enough for both of us. She's writing a book right now and since she's using my laptop, we have to share that, too!
Without further ado, here are some pictures of my new office:
 |
| I purchased the flag from a World War II veteran. He served on a Navy destroyer in both the European and Pacific theaters. |
 |
| Lovely, lovely books! |
 |
| My 1940s Royal typewriter. And yes, it works! |
 |
| My reading corner. |
 |
| I had to add a Hogan's Heroes poster, of course! The map above the desk to the left is a replica of a battle map of Normandy before the D-Day invasion. |
In short, my office inspires me. Isn't that the way it should be? :-)
