Currently, by my chair I have?

To the left I have a piano,well, a step or two away, and to the right a sofa.
Between the sofa and my chair (they are at right angles) there is:
my handbag
a wastepaper bin
a pile of Daily Mail 'blank-out' crosswords that my dear (ex) in-laws put by for me each week, all partly done, waiting for inspiration to strike on that one word that will not come to me at the moment
a curio cabinet full of years of memories (nik-naks) and photos, with big photos of my Mum and Dad, my DS's and DGC on top.
In front of me is my Mums old folding table, on which sits my laptop, my cuppa (nearly finished, time for a top-up), my mobile, TV remote, packet of tissues, ashtray and ciggies.
Behind my chair is a bookcase with DVDs, videos of my childhood, lovingly transferred from cine film by my Dad before he died, plus videos and DVDs of my children and grandchildren.

To be honest, I am perfectly surrounded by all the things that matter the most to me in some form or other. The walls have pictures painted by my Mum, and family photos. There's a digital photo frame on top of the piano which has 80 odd photos on a loop of family near and far, and big photos of the DGC look down from the top of the TV cabinet.

Love sitting here relaxing after a long week at work, and just looking around at all the things and people I hold dear

To the right :

3 cookery books
3 slate drinks mats
a plastic envelope containing cuttings meant to inspire garden design which have been there at least two years

Ditto Jen, apart from the mat. Plus glasses case more glasses, leaflet from DH, overflowing magazine rack, oh and more specs! Mat is a "posh" gold one my friend gave me (scratched now). Must get on with knitting.

far too many unfinished knitting projects, zappers variae and an 'I am 60' drink mat, which is a total lie.

Do I get a prize for the most?

There`s a couple of pieces left Soop, I don`t eat much chocolate lately, not like me at all, it seems very sweet these days.
Mr number isn`t too bad , enjoys playing the martyred invalid a bit too much, can`t get him to budge except to go upstairs on his PS3, he`s supposed to exercise to build his strength up in order to have the stoma reversal operation, but he only goes out when he has an appointment at the docs or hospital. Think he needs a rocket up his you know what!!

Any to share, number ? How is Mr number these days?

Not by my chair, but on the sofa next to me,
Empty glasses case (I`m wearing them)
TV remote,
DVD remote
Telephone handset

I don't have a chair so on the left side of sofa. On my left is small glass topped table with mat for tea,specs for reading, mobile phone, pump dispenser of Champneys hand lotion that smells exactly like Clarins Eau Dynamisante (sp) (I love it) plus odd bits of peel from last nights clementine.

On my right is another pair of specs for tv, tv control (I'm in charge!!) and a wool throw.

I need a [ now!

All I have is a spare pair of specs. I've been obsessive about putting things away for years now.
Sometimes I have a little makeup bag containing tweezers, magnifying mirror, nail scissors etc.

Think I had better move from this place and put a few things away!!!

To my left (I'm on the sofa) I have a small oak cabinet that has a metal sculpture (of a cyclist), a silver glass candle jar and a vase of flowers on it. Next to that is the log basket. Nothing but cushions to my right and on the coffee table in front of me a pottery plate (made by my son) that holds nine, as yet unused, tealights, and bowl of fruit. I had a visitor this morning who commented on my tidy house and I immediately wondered if her subtext was 'get a life'.

During the day I am often seated at the table, sitting on sofa would make me feel guilty! I am surrounded by the following:
Laptop, tablet, printer,Nintendo DS with Brain Training, remote for radio, Loc8tor (to keep tabs on cats), bottle of water, diary, shopping list pad, calorie counting notebook, letter rack with walks and aerobics timetables, lamp, Glucosamine, red krill oil, peppermint oil (rats under shed!), wicker basket containing leads and chargers, and desk tidy for pens etc.
Decorating the edge of the table are reminders on small post-it notes in date order. Only 5 today, usually more.
On the next chair is next-door's three-legged one-eyed cat.

To the left - the cat, who is asleep on her own pouffe, my knitting, an empty tea mug on a little table, behind which is the hearth where stands a vase of wilting flowers (meant to buy more this morning, but forgot). To the right, a footstool where lies my mobile and a leaflet for offers from a supermarket where I have just been and from where I forgot to buy my flowers Too many 'wheres'.
