View submission: Portable/Temporary Desk Setup, Not Furniture

Depends on the volume of those projects. I have a wooden box, like an old-fashioned paper tray[1], that my husband made for me to collect all of my in-process paperwork and other action items/task memory triggers (which had a tendency to get strewn all over the place). It's big enough that my laptop computer sits on top of it like a lid.

It's basically my "bill pay" station. It's got a few extra things like the microphone earbuds for our phone, a pen, pencil, eraser, highlighter, a mini stapler, a pair of reading glasses and a pair of blue light glasses. Plus a sheet of address/return labels, a book of stamps, and a few business cards tucked in the front. It's a bit of a jumble and it would be better if it had a separate compartment (like the inside of this one[2]) for all those not-paper things, but I didn't know how/how much I would use it - but it serves me well.

I usually keep it on the seat next to me at the kitchen table, but if company comes over, I can put it on a shelf and it looks OK.
