Sam and my office

So first I wanted to post about our dog Sam. Many of you already know but Sam died over Christmas this year. He was very old and was starting to have a hard time walking but was a very sweet old dog. She came with our house when we bought it 8 years ago. The last owner tried to to have her move into town with them and she just couldn't handle that many people and cars all over. So she brought her back out to us. Sam always let us know when people were here. She was the best guard dog but never hurt anything. Well except the occasional racoon. She taught our other two dogs how to hunt and showed them around.

We will miss Sammy very much!

SO I also had some pics of my office that I wanted to post. This is my office at Francis Lauer where I do all my play therapy and work with kids, teens and families.
This is my super comfy recliner that I bought at a garage sale. Then my bookcases that have my books, the kids books, all my games and art supplies.

This is all of my puppets that I keep on a shoe rack so that the kids can see them and pick what they want.

This is my dollhouse that gets played with a TON! It is from like the 80's! LOL!!! My fabrics are also in this corner. So are my legos and blocks and feelings poster that I have many uses for.

These are my shelves of sandtray minitures. They are addicting I tell ya!!! I am looking for them all the time. I love finding perfect new ones. I think that the trees on the bottom shelf and the pretty things on the top left. This is my couch and on the bottom left you can see my two sand trays. One is plain sand and the clear one is red moon sand. On the other side of the couch is my treasure box that my friend Amy made me a long time ago. Kids get to pick a little toy from there at the end of the session if they followed all the rules.Last is my desk. It is usually not this messy. It was just a crazy day that day and I did not keep up with everything. Plus I needed to take out my garbage! GEEZ!!!

So that is my office. I will miss being there.It has been a really good space to me!

Ok that is all for now! Later everyone!
