I can’t even tell you how attractive the Foot Machine above looks to my feet, legs, knees, and lower back.

Suffice to say they’re all gathering for a chorus of ooooooohs and ahhhhhhhhhhs. My arms have no idea what’s going on – they just wish they were in on the good time.

If you sit at your desk anywhere near as much as I do mine, you know what I mean when I say that the back, legs, and feet can often get stiff and achy. My biggest problem is my lower back and I’m pretty sure I have a car wreck (years ago) to at least partly thank for that.

Whether I’m working online or watching television, I’ve noticed that my lower back is much more comfortable if my feet are at least a little elevated – I guess it takes some of the pressure off of my back.

My solution, when at my desk, is to sit on my legs or sit with them folded up.  Bad habit.  One that only worsens the circulation and causes more stiffness.

The Foot Machine looks like it is an ideal solution for easing lower back pain at the desk.  It looks like just the thing to make knees feel better too, to say nothing of the feet!

Product Description

The Foot Machine by Humanscale, with its ball bearing roller design, encourages gentle rocking of the feet in the same way a rocking chair encourages motion. Performing as a standard footrest, it provides support for the legs and relieves pressure on the lower back.

See Foot Machine for more information. Your back, legs, and feet will thank you for it. They may even serenade you – which is, frankly, kind of cool.

If you spend as much time working online as I do, you know what it’s like to want the following:

  • More time
  • More hands

Unfortunately, I’ve given up on waking up to a 36 hour day and, frankly, I’m not sure I could pull off a 4 hand look, try as I might.  So, there you have it.  I’ve accepted the fact that I have only 24 hours and 2 hands to work with.

A well-constructed daily planner and to do lists placed where I can see them gets around the time issue nicely.  And extremely innovative and brilliant office technology such as the AT&T TL7610 DECT 6.0 Digital Cordless Headset (Silver/Black) make my two hands seem like 4.  Without the stares.  I was recently sent one of these fantastic headsets to review and I totally give it two thumbs up (or would that be 4?).

AT&T Cordless Headset DECT 6.0 Digital (TL7610) Features:

  • Unsurpassed range
  • DECT 6.0 digital technology
  • Wirelessly pair to any 2008 AT&T DECT 6.0 cordless phone
  • Headset volume control
  • Up to 500 feet of range
  • Auto off
  • Conference capability with up to 2 headsets
  • Dual color lighted in-use indicator
  • Headset volume control
  • Lightweight and comfortable design
  • Multiple connection options: handset port and parallel PSTN
  • Multiple wearing styles: over the ear, over the head or behind the neck style
  • Mute
  • One-button answer
  • Optional handset lifter (AT&T TL7000 sold separately)
  • Optional remote dial pad works with PSTN connection mode only (AT&T TL7601 sold separately)
  • Sound level protection
  • Works with corded or cordless 1-line and 2-line phones
  • Works with multi-line business systems
  • Silver

The AT&T TL7610 DECT 6.0 Digital Cordless Headset (Silver/Black) isn’t just perfect, it’s essential.

Here’s why:

  1. No more pain in the neck. If you’ve ever done the ridiculous phone balance (where you try to hold it between your ear and shoulder) while keeping your hands free as you talk on the phone – you know the pain and strain that you feel in your neck.  The pain doesn’t go away, sometimes, for days.  A cordless headset frees you from the pain as it frees your hands from the phone.
  2. No more embarrassing drops. It’s just not cool to drop someone on the floor then follow it up with an, “Uh oh, I dropped you! (nervous laughter) What were you saying???”
  3. Your hands are free, free, free. As you’re listening to the person on the other end of the phone, your hands are free to type, write, search, drink coffee, file your nails, play Farmville (don’t judge me), or file papers.  Multi-tasking is a given today – not an option.
  4. You’ll look so darned tech-y. That counts for something, right?

The gorgeous, sleek AT&T TL7610 DECT 6.0 Digital Cordless Headset (Silver/Black) should absolutely be the next thing you buy for your office.  You’ll want to get one for the home as well – cooking is so much easier to do with two free hands.

This particular cordless headset is as clear and perfect as you could ever hope for.  It sounds just like a regular phone conversation – just without the neck strain or tied-up hands.  What’s more, this headset features an unsurpassed range of up to 500 feet – so if you like to walk while you talk (my husband’s the expert at that), feel free to be free!  The AT&T TL7610 Digital Cordless Headset is compatible with any phone you can think of.  The TL7610′s base doubles as its charger, which I love.  The last thing I need is another charger to chase around the house.

This is an extremely comfortable and very easy to use cordless headset.  The instructions and guide are 100 percent clear and easy to follow.  It’s a personal opinion, but I think AT&T always excels at keeping things very clear and uncomplicated.  Man, I love them for that.

At less than $200, the AT&T TL7610 is priced lower than most of its competitors.  With above-average sound quality and range, it is a must-have for anyone who uses the phone for more than just a few minutes a day.  I think that’s pretty much everyone!

The links I’ve included in this post point to Amazon, where the AT&T TL7610 is just $169 – unheard of!

Mirror of Emotions

Okay. Hold onto something. Philips is working on an unbelievably cool gadget they’re calling the “Rationalizer”, a device that’s basically a “mirror for your emotions”. It’s a mood ring gone high tech – very high tech.

Here’s the rundown: The employee wears an Emobracelet on their wrist which measures the “arousal component of the user’s emotion through a galvanic skin response sensor”.

I told you to hang onto something.

This EmoBracelet is synced (wirelessly) with the EmoBowl, the beautiful bowl you see in the picture above, with lighted patterns to show a user’s emotional readout. The range is a soft yellow, orange, or deep red.

When the bracelet wearer sees that the bowl is flashing red, it serves as an alert. Someone needs to chill the heck out! Or, to be more precise, the individual should take a break – maybe walk around for 10 minutes, play solitaire, or simply take a couple of deep breaths. The idea is for them to catch themselves before they make a decision that might be the result of emotions rather than the result of common sense. Check themselves before they wreck themselves.

Oh the ramifications! This is, honestly, a brilliant concept. The Mirror of Emotions is for Investors, but just imagine if everyone in your office were plugged up to one?

Let the games begin!

The deals aren’t just tech-ish, though.

You’ll find lots of savings on standard office supplies, office furniture, and office equipment. For example, the 2-Drawer 25 inch Staples Vertical File Cabinet pictured here is on sale, for a savings of $10.

That $10 could buy a Caramel Latte and 2 Walnut Brownies. I apologize. I’m out of control. (I’m also headed to the kitchen. he he he)

Change, change, change.  It’s the buzz word of the moment and the mindset of our generation.  Granted, there are some things that are changing that aren’t necessarily for the better – but from where I sit, most of the changes are positive.

One very positive change is the move toward wasting less, using less, and being smart about how we go about our daily lives.  You know, the change that dresses in green and demands that we all do our part to keep our world beautiful for all of its occupants – the ones with skin, fur, feathers, fins, or all of the above.  But enough about my inlaws*.
