Working from home… Sounds like a dream, right? I never really considered it an option because I spent twenty years in construction management which meant being on the jobsite every day. Fifty, sixty, and even seventy hour work weeks in places all over the south. Large cities like Birmingham, and Atlanta or vacation destinations like Pensacola, Florida.

I recently took a look at Fresh Reception Desk Ideas for 2023 as an overall look at revitalizing your office space in the new year. While a reception desk is the centerpiece of a waiting room, it is not all the furniture that makes up the space. Another key office furniture need is waiting room seating.

This one feels a little special to me. As soon as I saw the word “cubby,” I was transported back to Mrs. McConnell’s classroom at Valley Junior High in Jasper, Alabama. I was in third grade, in the simple world of the 1980s, and she was a stickler for organization — equal parts mother and drill instructor.

That memory reminds me why cubby storage organizers remain such a timeless way to keep life neat and organized. Though it’s been decades, that single word instantly brought her to mind. Third grade was a transf (Read More)

Introduction Do you remember when you were a kid and the worst punishment you could get was being grounded? You would be in your room, looking longingly out of the upstairs window while your friends rode bikes or played tackle football. If you were really lucky, it didn't last more than a day. But why was that the worst form of punishment? Maybe it's because humans need outdoors and fresh air just as much as we need food and shelter. The multitude of ways that science has uncovered (and is still uncovering) how the outdoors improves our mood and overall well-being cannot be overstated. For example, the American Psychological Association states that chi (Read More)
