In reply to Pinar Tarhan. Pinar, I only have a few items on my walls, the ones that mean the most to me and help me remember why I write.

Hi John,
My problem is that I sometimes forget looking at my inspirational pictures on my walls!!! I need to simplify things a bit, and then always start by looking at the selected few.

Loved yours, by the way:)

Hi John…I’ve tried a bit of experimentation with my working space…I’ve painted walls with soothing light blue and contrasting orange…Decorated it with framed pictures of family and close friends….Some motivation in the form of small collectibles with inspirational quotes..That’s my space.

In reply to Anne Wayman. Sounds perfect Anne. Your mention of a treadmill desk reminded me that I've been working standing up at two different coffee shops here in Ashland. Both have bar seating that are the perfect height. So far I like it.

My office is hard to beat… overlooking a canyon with all sorts of birds and even hawks… fresh air, cats. I’d like to rig a treadmill desk and see how that works. I’m almost ready to start moving furniture.

In reply to Rachel Ross.

I spent three fantastic years on Kauai. Such a magical place!

I really like the kit concept for creating homes. Sounds easier and more economical.

When I lived on Kauai there was discussion of allowing people to build homes from bamboo, but there was resistance because the bamboo homes didn’t meet building codes.

Hi John,
You’re welcome. It’s enjoyable to confab with like-minded souls about lifework and I’ve gotten a lot from your posts over the months I’ve been reading them, thank you.
How wonderful that you lived in an octagonal home on 5 beautiful acres in Hawaii…. that’s a description of a piece of heaven! My husband and I own our homebuilding company and ship kits all over the world and we’ve sent some to Hawaii- after 2000, though, so after your time.
I look forward to more of your posts and to sharing with our lovely tribe when it relates to Home.
Warmth, Rachel
