Lately, I decided to modify my residence office because it was in direful need of organization and dacor. I know what I want in a office, I just have never taken the time to sit down and plan it all out.

The first things I knew I needed were new lights, desk chair, bookcase, and media station. I had a set budget of what I wanted to spend and really didn't want to exceed it. I went to Staples and Office Max to see what I could attain.

All of the furnishings totaled up to be more than what I wanted to pay. I ended up searching online to see what I could find. I was able to go through a company based in New Jersey that sold several of the same furnishings in Walmart and Office Max for much less.

I was pleased to be able to get all of the stuff I needed without even coming close to my budget. Once I got all the essentials, I wanted to work on the media area of my home office.

I savor listening to music and having the television on in the background while I work. I wanted to buy a new stereo and an HDTV if I could afford it. I headed out the door to Circuit City to see what I could find.

The first thing I looked into was the stereo. They were pricy so I started looking at the MP3 players. They weren't so much money and would fit my needs so I purchased one. Then I browsed the high definition tv's.

The pictures on HDTVs are out of this world. I knew I wouldn't be watching much of it while I worked but how could I get anything less than a high definition picture? I had to buy the finest.

The HDTV I decided on is only a 37" but I can mount it on the wall, which means it won't take any room. I was so excited to get home and try out my new toys. When I came home, I instantly put up the HDTV and MP3 player.

It was as if I had my own personal space where I could do anything I wanted. I turned the TV on and it had the clearest picture I have ever seen. High definition sure is one of the best inventions.

At first, I thought my new HDTV and sound system was going to distract me too much but it has actually made me more productive. It was all well worth it... I love my new office!
