Love or Opportunity? Coffee Social

Don't sit, stand.

Sitting is bad for you anyway. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/news/sitting-bad-for-your-health

I recall reading that an hour sitting took as much time off your life as smoking two cigarettes.

(I'm excited because my new adjustable standing desk has finally arrived, so I'll give this standing desk thing a try.)

Standing desk?????? now that's new! and kinda funny to picture hahaha

I can't stand in place for long periods of time. Really, even more than a few minutes most days.

I always liked the concept of a treadmill desk. I bet it wouldn't be as much fun as I'm thinking though.

That's another reason I like retail management. There's desk time and floor time. Best of both worlds.

Much easier than moving all of your equipment and personal items every time you change desks..... Less chances to spill your pencil cup everywhere.

may be I'll be placing some orders from Mrs Parker soon lol
nahhhh not yet but we are thinking that we'll try this year

Nah.. not a competition. We already know there will be a Forum Baby Boom.. once everyone lands! Well except for maybe in Sir's house!

And we can all use that practice knitting! Practice beats when your missing those knitting needles!

When I worked at the UPS call center they had motorized desks. All we had to do was push a button and they would raise and lower to any height we wanted. It was great to be able to alternate between sitting and standing (or slouching)

Until then, use your artifical needles?

Sir Amikety wants to raise Maine Coons instead. She just informed her husband of this plan the other day. He whined Mika was the princess of our 'castle' and can't share her space with bigger cats........ Sigh.

Well we all gotta do what we gotta do.

And I think your current cat rules the house!

She does. Who else has a cat with her own bedroom and queen size bed? I cater to her. Hubby caters to her. She's spoiled rotten. And I don't care because she was abused before we got her. She deserves make up love.

I had a thought while I was texting you..... If I'm "Sir" what does that make my hubby? "Maiden Amikety" "Madame Amikety" "Lady Amikety" ? ? ? ?

He will be excited when I announce this to him........

I agree.. we all need that make up love.. and your princess is the definition of spoiled. Have to introduce you to my non cuddling cat to see that not all cats are the answer! Report back which title he likes the most! I am thinking Sir and Lady Amikety!

LOL! my husband is definitely Mrs Boom and there's nothing wrong with that for him, thankfully.

Oh man!! I just made a stir fry with leftover chicken I had from last night. I added a little bit of parsley, cilantro and mint at the end and it was so darn good. I must get more herbs tomorrow. I wish I had a garden!
