Just wondered who has a "home office", a desk or room dedicated to all home related papers such a bills, receipts, calendars, computer, printer, etc....  I do and it sure helps keeps me organized.

I do @bargainsgirl , but I work from home, so it's required.  If I didn't work from home, I would still enjoy having an office in my home.

I do, though it is winding down somewhat. I ran my travel agency and then for the past 15 years have been employed as a personal assistant/VP of a company based in Washington DC. Originally I had 2 4-drawer filing cabinets but today everything is mostly housed within my computer system so my need for space is not as critical. Thank heaven for computers! I love taking my job with me no matter where we go!

I work from home, so I have a dedicated office.  I do love having a space just to myself for all of my work things where I can close the door and not have to look at it, for example, in my kitchen or bedroom.

Oh how I wish I did!! I have my space,  not really an office--more a computer area--- in my bedroom and I just hate it--always looks messy--I am in a small 2 bd appt with DD so room is not a thing we have much of.

I do. Not much paperwork though b/c I have it stored electronically.

I don't have a home office, per se, but I do have a couple of spare guest rooms where I have a desk set up with all my office type items in one of them.  I don't work from home, so my set up is enough for me.  

 

I don't have a gift closet either, but I do have a couple of shelves that I keep some future presents on.  LOL

We have more of a "work area".  DH has his computer desk in our loft which also has a file cabinet, bookcase and a cozy rocking chair with big cathedral windows.   It's a nice relaxing spot and we both use it.   It is organized and all important essential documents are in one place.

Call me old fashioned but I still want a paper copy of the important stuff.  I do save just about all of then on my external drive.
