The Office

I had an office once that was static. It seemed exactly the same every day. The angle of the building related to the path of the sun kept the light pretty even year round, so I was used to the florescent glow that filled the room when I flipped the switch upon entering.

Then I moved into my home office, and for those of you that don't know, that was three different places in my home over the course of three years. That office experience was always changing. I could never count on how warm or cold I'd be, whether crickets would chirp at me, or if a bird might fly in through a window.

So I've experienced an office setting where nothing really changes, and one where everything changed all the time. My office right now is showing me that it is in between. The seasonal change has had a big impact on my office. I am surrounded by windows and I love that, but the daylight change has made the sun pass my side of the building much quicker than it used to. I think I'll need to bring in a lamp to insure that I have enough light, especially on overcast days like this.

I can't say how much I appreciate having this office. It provides me a place to really focus on the things I'm working on and for meeting people. It has been a great step for moving my best to a higher level for the church.
