I think it's good to have stuff like this on your desk. Makes "work" feel more "homey". Especially with as much time as we spend in the office!
you have filled your office with many pleasant things to look at......it helps pass the day!!
You have some interesting stuff there, which one is your favorite to look at?
Great stuff, I especially like that 5 year service medal.
I warn everyone now. Those Berties Bots things are disgusting! AND TO THINK I LET YOU TALK ME INTO TRYING THEM! I can still taste the earwax one...
I love seeing so many of your Office things. Each one is a lovely part of you, from the more serious to the funny to the off beat and to the traveler. It's like a Jan museum. I really love the turtle the best though.
Hi Janet! Very cool collection of stuff in your office - very fun and international! Thanks for visiting my blog yesterday. I'd planned to stop by yours anyway, and then you posted just ahead of me in the comment game, so I'm here today from Michele's.
Wow. I didn't think anyone could be fond of snape. This is quite interesting. Thanks for the visit.
I love the Belleek castle vase! Mines done.
A picture Thirteen! Very cool.
I have that same Eiffel Tower; someone brought it back to me from Paris. It's in my home office.
My TT is up, but it's not nearly as interesting as yours...
Very interesting TT! love the pic of your favorite boys ;) I have a tiny Lindt choc bunny too! My TT is up!
My friend Susan's T13 list is about your #4 :)
Mine's up, too! Happy Thursday!
better to have a soft spot for crabs than to have crabs.
unless you're a crab farmer, that's different. maybe i should shut up and do my T13.
Oh, I love the turtle (#8)!
Your photos are gorgeous. Thank you for sharing them!
(Here by way of Michele, but I was just randomly checking out other commenters on the yard sale thread!)
I love the bunny. I wouldn't have eaten it either! I used one of goofy girl's banners too...I love them! Mine are up!
Wow, cool stuff - and all in your office - how neat is that. #1 is very cool #4 is funny! hehe
I had the same foil bunny on my desk too at work up until last Monday...
With the day I had on Monday, that little bun wasn't so cute to me anymore!
Broke it open and washed it down with a Diet Pepsi, (less calories that way)
I would get lost trying to do a list of things on my desk. I really need to clean it off.
My Thirteen are here.
I'm new at this Thursday thirteen thing, so I'm dropping you a note to say "hi". I browsed past your site a week or so ago and stuck around to read because of the Snape picture. Grin. Anyhow, this week I posted my own Thursday 13. Feel free to check it out.
Fun idea! Maybe I'll try that sometime....but I don't have cool stuff like that and my digital camera only works good outside.
not often you stumble on the Theban Alphabet in a TT!!!
