If you ever wanted to see what a highfalutin pen looked like, here’s your chance. The thing is – I think it’s a knockout! When I saw the price, I was all ready to give it a hard time. Then I went and fell for it. Story of my shopping life.

Between my youngest daughter and I, the number of magazines in our home is staggering. We actually have magazine holders and organizers in three different rooms. Yeah, it’s that bad. My husband is better than we are about tossing his magazines out. He’ll read his business-y or golf-y magazines then toss them. According to his way of thinking, you take in the information, process the information, then you retain the information.
Yeah, whatever. Steph and I aren’t taking any chances. If we happen to misplace the information, we want to know where we can find it. Female logic in action.
I’ve been looking for another magazine holder for my office area. I want it to be oak and I’d love for it to be cool looking. When I came across the inWin Molded Ply Magazine Stand in Oak this morning, I knew I’d found what I’d been looking for (why did a U2 song just start playing in my head? — I still haven’t found what I’m – looking – for….).

This eye-popping motivational art print quotes the great Mark Twain: “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.’
The entire quote, which is one of my favorite inspirational quotes, says: Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. – Mark Twain
We rely a great deal on our gadgets and, quite frankly, spend a pretty fair amount for the privilege of doing so. Naturally we want to care for them the best we can.

I’ve been pricing file cabinets and folders for my home office. I’m also looking for a new bookcase. Everything has just become so cluttered and unorganized! Like most people, I work SO much better when the area around me is organized and clutter-free. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case at the moment, and I’m looking to do something about it.
As in N-O-W.
I love the Cherry Finish Wood File Cabinet with 3 Drawers
I also like the fact that, in the comments, people said this file cabinet was easy to put together. That’ll make it easier on my husband.
The choice of file cabinet was easy enough, but there were SO many great looking file folders and hanging files that I’m still trying to decide. I love the colorful ones, but the simple green also speaks to me. Decisions, decisions.
Below are some of the files and hanging folders available at Amazon:
Ooh to the la to the la. I am completely infatuated with the Abanico Bookend, shown above (as well as the one below). Each bookend set is from Artful Home, so you know they’re built to last about 3 lifetimes. These gorgeous bookends are by the ridiculously talented artist Seth Rolland.
Whether you have a great book collection because you actually love reading or you have a great book collection simply because you want to appear to have a love for reading, these bookends will impress anyone and everyone.
About the Product:
The Stonehenge Bookends, shown in all their majesty below, are just as impressive.

If you’re even remotely familiar with me, you know I’m all about baseball. While the St. Louis Cardinals are my team (that’s a civilized way of saying I live, breath, eat, and sleep St. Louis Cardinals baseball), I’m straight up wild about anything and everything baseball. You could sit me in front of a game between any random teams in the AL or the NL and I’d be as happy as Wimpy in McDonald’s.
The MLB Office Supplies and Furniture in this post make me happy on so many levels. If your favorite team isn’t pictured here, I’m not trying to slight your boys of summer. Just click through any product that catches your eye – your team is almost certainly available. I think the home plate-shaped mousepads, for example, are available in each of the 30 teams – and they’re stinking cool.

Whenever I was in a math class (hideous, horrifying, haunting memories), I always referred to my calculator as the “brain God intended me to have.” I figured that, somewhere along the way, my mom fed me something that cancelled out God’s intentions and left me with a brain with the mathematical skills of a dragonfly. With dementia.
The Texas Instruments® TI-30X IIS Scientific Calculator, Black, from Staples, is one good looking brain and it would have been my honor to run panicked fingers across its buttons. But, alas, somehow my clunky calculator and I made it through high school math. I even passed algebra… which is one of those things my husband would call an act of God.
But back to the beauty above.

Business owners and employees now rely on technology more than ever. Not only is business now being conducted via digital technology in the office, it is happening everywhere. With the advent of items like the BlackBerry, cloud and tablets, it is now possible to send and receive important communications anywhere.
Documents that once had to be viewed and sent on a computer, are often sent via devices like BlackBerry business phones. New applications are available that can translate office documents from Word, Power Point, and Excel. This makes these phones an ideal choice for viewing, saving and transferring such files. While it isn’t always feasible to carry around a bulky laptop, virtually everyone has space for blackberry in their pocket.
There’s more to these devices than just file sharing. Most, offer a variety of peripheral services one would expect on their computer as well. Things like calendars, GPS location services, event planners, email and cameras are standard equipment. For those that rely on up to date news and stock reports, there are apps for that as well. The business world is changing, and clients demand business partners that are available and effective at all times.
Another possibility in regards to doing business via mobile devices comes in the form of client and purchasing interactions. Not only should managers and employees have BlackBerry business phones, the company’s website should be available on such devices. With more smart phones shipping than PCs, it is important to offer services in this manner. Creating mobile sites that seamlessly accept transactions and facilitate business is essential.
Companies that deliver goods may consider purchasing credit card readers that compliment their smart phones. Finalizing a business deal or sale in the field will simplify transactions, wasting less of a client’s time. Integrating card reading technology is easier than ever, and will allow businesses to become more efficient and profitable.
The only way companies can remain successful in today’s challenging business world is to stay on top of current technology trends. Customers not only expect, they demand their needs be satisfied fast and conveniently. New devices make this possible, but companies must always remain at the forefront of new and developing technology.
