Hello Again. I'm Van. This is my Office.

Name: Vanessa Alvarado, Alias Van
Location: Jacksonville, Florida
Occupation: Marketing Writer full time, Part Time Freelance Writer and Artist

Portfolio: http://www.vanwrites.com/
Blog: You're Here

Inspired by this inspirational website, I decided to write about a few key items I love in my office. I've written about my office (and its various forms) three times before, which is excessive. The thing is, clocking in at 50 hours per week- I practically live here. My office walls are lined with colorful fabric to prevent insanity.



The current theme appears to be Marine Biology. I have a passion for Marine Biology, and it helped that the old Marketing office was dubbed "the fish bowl" because of its large glass windows.



Bits of Art


All artwork is obtained locally. Nicole Middleton did all of the realistic paintings, I shared a booth with her at the Riverside Arts Market and we did a few Art Trades.

This spotted red fish, however, is from a colorful, nautical themed boutique in St. Augustine (a fish lover's playground!)



Another piece I really like is this squid, which I found for a low price at 3 Eclectic Chicks Art Boutique where my art was once featured (it's sadly no longer in business).



Meomi poster & Koi Wall Scroll from Earth's Gifts


I have 2 Octonauts posters from Meomi.com- I admire their Japanese inspired graphic and web design.



A sentimental piece is this handmade clay koi which was made for me by a good friend.



My Japanese tea pot (bought back by my dad when he was stationed there) is not ornamental. I use the teapot and cups several times a day. Speaking of which, it's tea time now...



The Right side of my work station, 2nd Meomi poster pictured.


I should be moving again (about the 5th move in a year and 2 months) to small cubicle within a few weeks. I like my office, but a move is always a refreshing change. I might take the fish theme home and craft some kind of steam punk, robot, or horror theme next. Being surrounded by colorful eclectic objects inspires me to write, design, and simply survive the work day.

    We are a dependable, professional maid services organization that many Cincinnati home owners already trust to clean their home. All these people stating they possess to make a living and whatnot....If all you're performing can be washing my lightbulbs and faucet شركة تنظيف خزانات شمال الرياض handles and if the business just transmits one person, what have got I received cleaned out actually?.... She wants me to start with deep cleaning but only wants me to come three hours a day twice a week to ensure that would end up being six hours a week.

    Again, find their work 1/2 of what was expected; should know, best? I asked my own mother several years ago if our house was as messy as mine when I was growing up. She raised my 3 brothers and شركة تنظيف منازل بالرياض I as a single mother, so I just believed it HAD to possess been! We today hire unbiased cleaners that are typically even more mature and experienced, and actually wish to perform this function.

    If you desire of walking into an spotless house without taking the time or attempt, we are ready to help. We maintained our initial customer in early 2008, and in 2010 I chose to rounded out my business understanding by signing صيانة التكييف بالرياض up in business college. For us we have found it works best to hire someone by the hour for the first 4 cleanings with an agreed plan of what will be done and the potential period body allowed to execute the tasks.

    Both businesses and specific cleaners will offer solid worth for your cash; which you select is dependent mainly on your preference and comfort level. To those of angieslist users stating $20-$30+ /human resources شركة تنظيف منازل شرق الرياض for washing providers are as well sharp please enjoy my thoughts. If I want a $300 64"(inch) T.V. I am not going to go to BestBuy and complain to the sales floor representative how "insane" I think

    Last week was my extremely initial period having somebody arrive and clean my home. We maintain our home fairly clean ourselves and mainly simply desire someone to vacuum, dust, and clean the شركة صيانة مسابح بالرياض bathrooms and kitchen. You are in control of your experience, whether you're hiring cleaners or looking for a customer. I function 6-7 hours every time and it is certainly a hard labor.

  7. أول خطوة في تنفيذ العزل المائي وخصوصا عند عزل حمامات الدور الارضي هي كنس البلاط بشكل جيد ومتقن، وإزالة جميع الأتربة والرواسب المتراكمة عليه، والتأكد من عدم وجود أي غبار حتى لو طفيف على سطح البلاط ثم استكمال عملية التنظيف بغسل أسطح البلاط باستخدام منظفات ذات جودة عالية ومفعول قوي للقضاء على أي اوساخ، والتركيز على الفواصل بين البلاطات حيث تتجمع الأوساخ، وتكمن أهمية تلك الخطوة في ضمان ثبات المواد العازلة المقرر استخدامها فوق البلاط.
