I'm a wife, mother and grandmother. I'm opinionated. I contradict myself frequently. Most of all, I love my kids. I believe in them. I fight for them. They're weird and wonderful. If you want to know more, here's a bunch of other stuff from my old site.

I Won!!!!

  • by Marisa
  • June 1, 2007

Last month, I entered the Best Workstation Contest held by Mr. Gary Lee. The grand prize was a Motorola HT820 Stereo Bluetooth Headset. Very cool prize, indeed.

Well today he announced that I won the contest! How cool is that?

There were some really great workstations in the contest. Some of those multi-monitor setups made me drool. Even so, I wouldn’t trade my perfect office for any of them. I love having my own room for all my tech stuff. I love having a place that is just mine, that I don’t have to share, even with the husband. :)

And my very own special space has just won the prize for Best Home Workstation!!! Thanks, Gary!

  • Thank you so much! :)

    Mine is a little geeky. That’s Linux running on the computer off to the left. I just hadn’t finished booting it up when I snapped the picture. :)

    And my kids better never make fun of my orange curtains again!
