Photo Hunters: Together

Photo Hunter

I almost wasn’t going to do Photo Hunters today, because my week has been one crazy week of running around! But then the little light bulb went off- I really need to GET IT TOGETHER. So, here’s a photo of my desk, the thing I really need to get together:

Get it together

My computer crashed this week, and it’s been a hectic time of fixing it and putting all my stuff back in it. I missed a few appointments this week (grrrrrr) because my brain is fried from trying to remember all the things I need to do.

I also feel bad because I didn’t visit any fellow Photo Hunters last week, due to all the issues going on. I am going to set aside some time later this evening to visit all the kind people who have left comments here from past Photo Hunters, and then I’ll try visiting tnChick’s site to visit more folks.

Whew! So that’s my “Together.” How did your Photo Hunt go today?

    I told somebody once that I would start using a pc in my old age as a hobby – it has pretty much taken me over… alTogether.

  2. Irene on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 11:30 am 

    Hope you enjoy your weekend putting together things that you need to put together ;p

  3. Maureen on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 11:41 am 

    Oh I SO understand this photo and your week!! I am there too, and it is nice to know I am not alone! I wish you a much better weekend and some time to organize.

    Thanks for coming over to guess at my celebrity photos (and you kind, though not true comment!). I appreciate you taking the time.

    We are still in the process of getting our home office ‘together’. It has been months… sigh. Hope you get to yours this weekend!

  5. Alice Audrey on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 12:24 pm 

    But… but… it IS together.

    No way I’m going to show you mine.

  6. Frugal Grandma on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 12:26 pm 

    Sometimes the need to get things “together” is daunting. Ooooooh, but I love your work area – would I ever love to have such shelving by my computer. Hope you have all running smoothly again soon.

  7. RJ Flamingo on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 12:27 pm 

    If it makes you feel any better, the hubs has been after me for weeks to start getting our garden together. The way things are going, I think we’re going to wind up with a 1940’s-style Victory Garden! :-)

    I see about 4 square inches of clear space on that desk. That makes you farther ahead than me. :-)

    Thanks for dropping by!

  8. Rachel on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 12:37 pm 

    How funny! That’s what my desk usually looks like,too. It reminds me of a sign my grandfather had on his desk: A cluttered desk is a sign of genius. I guess we’re all geniuses!

    Thanks for stopping by. Have a great Saturday!

  9. June on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 12:37 pm 

    Hope you get together soon…I know how horrible it is to have computer problems!

  10. Dianne on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 12:54 pm 

    Sorry about your computer woes-that can be a pain. You surely are organized-good for you!
    Thanks for stopping by my blog too.

  11. Amanda on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 12:57 pm 

    Wow actually your desk looks a lot better than my working area. I swear a natural disater came through my office because I cannot be that messy! :)

    Happy Weekend!
    Amanda

  12. Sabine on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 12:57 pm 

    I like the quote by Rachel about the cluttered desk – I always say a clean desk is a sign of a sick mind *grin*
    I love your desk, and I think it looks just normal. There’s everything together that you probably need – and no need for getting it together!!
    Thanks for your visit & wish you a happy weekend!

  13. marta on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:02 pm 

    Sorry to hear about your computer problems and I hope it is better now that you have everything ‘together’. :) Thanks for stopping by.

  14. sarge charlie on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:04 pm 

    you have almost got it together….

  15. Gary Byrne on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:12 pm 

    I need a hand with my blog as regards ads and a better look.Can you help.Great site

  16. Juliana on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:30 pm 

    You have nice organize desk better than us :D

    thanks drop at my ph post

  17. Patsy on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:32 pm 

    You may feel scattered, but I’d say your desk area looked pretty good. My computer area is an armoir that is always open. I added some cork board inside the door and have a kuzillion thing pinned there and then have the overflow on the kitchen *nook* table. So you are very neatly together.
    Thanks for dropping by earlier.

  18. Oraeley: My Site on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:32 pm 

    I know how that is! We’re living in a basement apartment right now and my goodness–we gather clutter so easily down there.

  19. Pamela on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:42 pm 

    I love it!! How cool are all these ideas? Such fun, photohunt :)

    You should totally go to London, it’s my very favourite city. I’d move there in a heartbeat if it wasn’t so terribly expensive!

  20. jerla on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:45 pm 

    hi thanks for checking my entry and i appreciate your comment a lot. Hhmmm looks like your a busy bee hehhehe. take care have a good one too :)

  21. Jottings From Jersey on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:52 pm 

    Actually your computer desk isn’t messy, at least I don’t think so. Sorry to hear about your computer crashing. I never (thank God) had a computer crash on me. I hope I never will.

  22. mo on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:52 pm 

    Thanks for your visit & comment!
    If you get a chance, stop by Purrchance To Dream, too.
    Your computer desk is so much more “together” than mine!
    Yesterday, I put the multitude of addresses I had on the bazillion post-it notes actually into a Google document and threw all the post-its away, and my assistant almost fainted!
    :)
    Have a great weekend!
    mo

  23. Cathi on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:54 pm 

    I really really like your take on together!!
    I wish I could get it together. I would have thought the older I get the more together I would be but not so.
    Big Smile!

  24. Tracey on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 1:59 pm 

    I love the take on the theme! I need to get it together as well. I am teaching a online photography class for beginners who use the auto function on their camera all the time. Getting the lessons written and together is a lot of work! Thanks for visiting!

  25. Dragonstar on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 2:04 pm 

    That looks rather like my desk – because I tidied yesterday!!! Mostly you can barely see the keyboard.
    I love your take here. Hope you manage to get it TOGETHER soon!

  26. diXymiss on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 2:09 pm 

    So sorry about your computer troubles. So, when you finish getting your desk togther, will you come over here and tackle mine?! ;-)

  27. SmalltownRN on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 2:22 pm 

    now that is a great take on the theme…..very original….

  28. PastormacsAnn on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 2:25 pm 

    Sorry about your computer problems! Computer crashes definitely throw life out of whack! Glad you’re getting it together again! Nice post for The Hunt. Thanks for dropping by for a look at our togetherness.

  29. Staci on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 2:33 pm 

    Your desk looks much more together than mine! I’d be ashamed to even post a photo of my disastrous area. I’m sorry to hear about your computer!

    Thanks for stopping by today!

  30. Shinade on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 2:38 pm 

    Oh my goodness it looks fabulous compared to my desk. Mine is never that ‘Together!’ I wish it were. I am sorry to hear about your computer problems. I have been there and I know what an ordeal it is.

    Oh I am so glad you did decide to join in this week. I always love your entries.

    And trust me I also know about this being a crazy week. I am simply exhausted and may even go back to bed, crash and watch old movies all day.

    Thanks for stopping by to visit me. I am always so pleased to visit all of your blogs!!

    Blessings to you and yours on this glorious Sunday!!

  31. nana on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 2:57 pm 

    :-) Very good idea for this theme! Thanks for visiting. B.t.w. the sulpture is modern, made in 2006. Enjoy your weekend.

  32. Mar on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 2:58 pm 

    ::gasp:: it looks a lot better than my desk….
    Here’s wishing you a nice weekend and a quieter week ahead!

  33. Carver on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:03 pm 

    I’m sorry your computer crashed. Your desk certainly looks together compared to mine. Good take on the theme. Happy weekend.

  34. Carin on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:04 pm 

    Sounds like a hectic week to me. Your desk looks quiet organized to me. Hope you got that bulb together. It is horrible when a computer doesn’t do what it’s supposed to do.

    Have a nice week!

  35. liz on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:10 pm 

    Your desk looks pretty together comapred to mine! Maybe next week will be less hectic. Or maybe not!

  36. Bengbeng on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:11 pm 

    settle yr own domestic probs first. visit other photohunters when u r able :) btw the shelves r neat n do offer lots of storage space without occupying a lot of space.

  37. JO on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:12 pm 

    I’m glad you got your computer working again… enjoy your weekend!

    A single entry for Friday Fun and Photo Hunt for me this week…

  38. Pocklock on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:16 pm 

    I love your twist on “together”!

  39. Jodi on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:17 pm 

    Thanks for stopping by!

  40. Mrs. Mecomber on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:22 pm 

    What a treasure trove of enjoyable comments! I loved reading them all. And I guess I feel a little better about my desk… lol.

    I did get to every single Photo Hunter today, as of 2:30pm EST on tnChick’s comment form. WHEW!! But I think doing it has made up for my slackness last week. This week’s photos were so good, folks!

    Thanks again for your comments.

  41. margaret on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:24 pm 

    We did that recently as well. My computer desk is much more together than it used to be!

  42. reflections by dawn on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:27 pm 

    Oh, that stinks about your computer. I’ve been there and you’d think I’d have learned to be better at keeping backups – but noooooo.

    Thanks for visiting my photo hunter today too :)

  43. Tammy on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:35 pm 

    I love your take on “together”! Look’s to me like you already have it “together”.

    Thanks for stopping by my PH post.

  44. Emily/randomability on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:40 pm 

    Thanks for stopping by! Another clever photohunter theme. :)

  45. Fallakka on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:41 pm

  46. A. on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 3:52 pm 

    Yes, that reminds me, I have some getting together to do too. And soon!

    Thanks for visiting me earlier :)

  47. Mike on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 4:13 pm 

    Looks a lot better than mine. Bet it will be a theme before long. Well done.

  48. CrAzY Working Mom on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 4:36 pm 

    I am finally getting it together 2 months after the birth of my third child. Whew, things around our place are always crazy! This weekend, hubby is out of town, and I took ALL THREE kids to wal-mart by myself! I am so proud. We all did great and nobody argued or got in trouble. Good times!!!
    Thanks for stopping by. Have a lovely weekend!

  49. Hummie on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 4:37 pm 

    Amen sista! lol….that’s what I need to do too! Made me smile.

  50. petrus on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 4:52 pm 

    Nothing worse than a computer crash … your desk looks like my study – books and papers everywhere …

    Have a good weekend.

  51. JC on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 5:17 pm 

    We are so addicted, eh… I know I’d be in a bad place without mine ;-)

  52. Corey~living and loving on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 5:48 pm 

    This is a great choice for the theme. I soooooooooo need to get it together as well. :) thanks for the great comment on my post. :) Happy weekend!

  53. Leslie from Australia on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 5:54 pm 

    Now that’s an excellent take on the theme! :) Have a great weekend! :)

  54. Sue on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 6:57 pm 

    Great photo and description! It’s hard to get it together when your computer crashes! Hope it’s all back together now. :)

  55. Patricia (Pollywog Creek) on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 7:01 pm 

    Very clever take on the theme, Mrs. Mecomber! So sorry to hear about your computer crash, and I totally understand about those weeks when getting around to visiting other Photo Hunters is difficult. Hope your week to come is much, much better! Blessings!

  56. Michelle on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 7:05 pm 

    Sorry about your crash, but glad thing are getting a bit better. Thank you for visiting my PH

  57. Kelly on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 7:05 pm 

    Great take for this week’s theme. Our computer crashed a few months ago. I hate when that happens ;) . Computers – Can’t live with ‘em, Can’t live without ‘em.

    Thanks for stopping by. Don’t ever feel bad if you can’t make the rounds. Sometimes life just gets in the way and ya gotta do what ya gotta do! Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

  58. Sandy on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 7:30 pm 

    It’s amazing how hooked we are to our PCs….LOL Thanks for stopping by.

  59. Bintang on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 7:53 pm 

    With busy schedule and problem with your computer. You still manage to stop by my PH.
    I really appreciate it.

  60. julie on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 7:58 pm 

    Problems with hectic schedules make us realize that we need to slow down and take things slowly. Well, maybe you should too. Just relax so that you can do the things that need to get done.

    Have a relaxing weekend!

  61. girasoli on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 8:02 pm 

    I can soooo relate! Although your desk is much cleaner than mine :) Very creative take on this week’s theme.

  62. Leanne on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 8:26 pm 

    I wish my desk was half as organized and together as yours looks! lol Thanks for stopping by my page! :)

  63. mistyeiz on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 8:37 pm 

    that’s definitely a different take of the theme but a good one! :) thanks for stopping by. n ur desk is definitely more neat than mine too!! lol

  64. Larry on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 8:53 pm 

    That’s nothing – you should see my desk! Don’t stress out about getting it all together because in the long run, it’ll all work out the way things should.

  65. Tina (mummifiedx5) on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 9:07 pm 

    That’s a great photo of “together”…:) Thanks for stopping by my blog!

  66. Mariposa on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 9:31 pm 

    Ha, I hear you…and well, the more chaotic the desk is…the more productive we are?! :D

  67. Simplycats on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 9:52 pm 

    Sorry, I am a bit late with my comments today. Your desk looks a bit like my work area ;O)

    By the way. The stripe-less orange cat is a ‘Red Point Burmese’ :O)

  68. Napaboaniya APAD on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 9:58 pm 

    I need to get my desk together as well!! :P
    It’s a nightmare to even try find a clean piece of paper *lol*

  69. Sniffie and the Florida Furkids on Sat, 8th Nov 2008 10:33 pm 

    We try not to look at Mom’s desk. It’s too scary! Good luck putting things “together”

    Well I must say your desk looks more together than mine does! Great take on this week’s theme! I hope that next week is better for you.

  81. eam on Sun, 9th Nov 2008 3:48 am 

    your desk looks ‘together’ to me! you should see mine! LOL. hope your computer is working smooth again. your cpu looks nifty! small but i bet powerful so it should be back up and running! :-)

    am getting the color of death on my notebook too- the blue screen of vista! i’ve run diagnostics and stuff and i still don’t know what’s wrong. it works fine then i get the blue screen and it dies. i want to run my own “i’m a pc” commercial and tell microsoft that PC stands for piece of crap! vista that is– just too buggy!

    have a great week!

  82. butchay on Sun, 9th Nov 2008 3:51 am 

    wow, i could never imagine even a day without a computer, it mustve been really stressful for you when it crashed and all that, but so great its ok now.

  83. cating on Sun, 9th Nov 2008 9:11 am

  84. Jerry on Sun, 9th Nov 2008 10:02 am 

    So this week you are ‘anti-together’! *smile*

    Sorry to hear about the PC crisis – it is scary how dependent we are on technology at times. I hope it all works out for you.

  85. Sue on Sun, 9th Nov 2008 10:40 am 

    Creative take on the theme! I’ve gone through a major crash and can relate. Thanks so much for stopping by!

  86. ian on Sun, 9th Nov 2008 12:51 pm 

    if my desk were that organized, i’d get canonized lol thanks for visiting earlier. it was my pleasure to share my central park finds =] hope the craziness will dissipate soon… have a great week ahead!

  87. witsandnuts on Sun, 9th Nov 2008 2:55 pm 

    A nice interpretation of being and getting together. You have a lovely desk. Thanks for dropping by!

  88. Enigma on Sun, 9th Nov 2008 5:47 pm 

    I had computer problems this past week, also. Aggravating, isn’t it? Love your “together” photo. Not unlike my work area. Everyone else thinks its cluttered but I KNOW where everything is. Great contribution. Thanks for stopping by my place Mrs. M!

  89. Jenny A. on Sun, 9th Nov 2008 8:01 pm 

    Thanks for your visit this week, despite all your challenges! ;-)
