All of us “work at home” to a degree. \u00a0I mean, stay-at-home-moms actually\u00a0do\u00a0<\/em>work at home, and their office is…well, the entire\u00a0<\/em>house…just ask my husband; I have been known to point that out on occasion.\u00a0Other professions allow for working at home as well, thus requiring a dedicated work space.<\/p>\n

I have had the absolute privilege over the past several months to consult with a woman (Mrs. M) whom I describe, without hesitation, as an inspiration. \u00a0I have known this woman ever since her youngest son became “the new kid” at my elementary school in 2nd grade (I may or may not have had verbal altercations with more than a few classmates over who go to be his 2nd grade girlfriend) \ud83d\ude09 I digress…<\/p>\n

We are currently working together on her home office. \u00a0She has the typical, common issues that accompany many home offices; outdated furnishings (meaning, the Tech Age has altered our need for paper storage : aka ‘filing’), lack of productive work space, and\u00a0clutter\u00a0<\/del> excess of product and stuff in general. But not only are we working to solve her ‘working’ problems, we are working to create an updated, beautiful, and functional space that just-so-happens to be located in the center of her home…a space that a lot of people see! In her words, our goal is for a home office that doesn’t look too\u00a0“officey.”\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n

Working remotely means I get to work from my\u00a0own\u00a0<\/em>home office; so today Mrs. M and I video-conferenced our meeting. \u00a0She was smiling and nodding on her end…although she forgot to switch her camera around, so I didn’t see it…but she would laugh and say, “I’m smiling and nodding!” I can relate to Mrs. M’s need for a smart, functional, and appealing place for conducting business.<\/p>\n

I can’t wait to share the “Before & After” album for this project! \u00a0Thank you, Mrs. M! \u00a0You are a professional inspiration, but more importantly in my book, you’re a\u00a0personal\u00a0<\/em>inspiration! The Lord works in mysterious ways!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
