What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 116

Well, there's nothing to brag about, and no picture to show. Depsite having 2 laptops and a PC, I can't find a way to upload from my camera card and email from my phone...none of us are configured properly...dysfunctional or what!  
I am in the middle of folding and creasing various cards and papers as preparation for a Paper Engineering workshop, so far, so many folds, not so many finished samples!  Ah, but when the PC is fixed I will show and tell of my creaseless pain.

So go on, even from a room that you can't see,imagine my mess and put me to shame - show  your desk by uploading a pic to your blog and link here - it's fun, free and surprisingly interesting.  Now you can't say that about eveything you have to do on a Wednesday, huh!

  2. Sorry the digital world is throwing a tantrum...but a little use of the imagination is also fun and good for the mind. How messy or tidy a desk do you want me to envisage ?

  4. I was afraid WOYWW would be cancelled this week, but I see the Linky and everything is working except for the obligatory photos and possible e-mails. I know you will be with us again soon, though. And we will be thinking about you in the meantime.

  7. So long as you didn't get arrested for offing the PC guy, and the photoless post is not an attempt to hide a messy crime scene (death by bone folder?) I suppose we can deal. :)

  17. true, true, hospital parking fees astronomical! (I hope that's spelt right!)
    It's like looking at your craft room, with the lights off...and wearing dark glasses, and weirdly enough, I can still picture it! Stable door open and folded stuff piled to one side. Have a great day.
    Happy WOYWW

  32. How tidy is that - no photo just an imaginary 'look see' from all of us in WOYWW land! I know how you feel, having just come through the other side of no internet/email access and it's like your right arm has been cut off. I hope they can re-sew it back on for you and you're with us again soon!

  33. Imagining each person's desk - taking WOYWW to a whole new dimension. For mine just imagine mess!

  39. I can commiserate. My phone doesn't want to talk to my computer so phone pics are locked down. Just another challenge! Looking forward to seeing your folding techniques when the dust clears. Have a nice Wednesday!

  41. Oh, I forgot to comment - well, 6am is just too early, lol! I hope you get your pc/laptop sorted and can upload pics soon - it is such a pain!
    I am picturing your workdesk - immaculate, basket-waiting-to-clean-stamps is empty, everything spick and span.... oh, not??? LOL!

  42. It would seem you are not the only one having uploading of photo problems, my card reader decided to give up the ghost last night so I have brought my one from work to be able to upload my desk for today or it just isn't Wednesday!!! You see the lengths to which we will go to be able to participate in the global desk hop and snoop!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Sometimes I think Computers are really out to get us all..lol Mine acts up at the worst possible moments. That's okay though, we can all imagine what's going on with your desk and pretend. I see a great cluttered, busy desk with lots of fun projects going on.
