In the kitchen
Good morning! :wave3: And Happy Friday (the 13th)! :yess: And another week of work bites the dust.

Where do you sit when you're on your computer? Or laptop? Or phone?

We turned our second bedroom in the house into a "computer" room as we call it. It has our desktops there. Most of the time, when I'm on the computer, I'm usually sitting at my desk in the computer room. If I'm surfing on my iPad, I might be on the couch in the living room or lying back in bed.

Where are you?

My computer is on (what is technically) my dining room table, although I have no dining room to speak of. When I'm on my phone, I'm usually on the couch.

I am mostly sitting in my dining room, which is sort of an alcove off of the living room that overlooks the back yard. I have morning coffee here, use the IPad and watch the birds out the window.

I do have a computer in my office/sewing room but I only use it for work and paying bills.

I have a desktop in one of our upstairs rooms. If I'm not on that, I am normally on my tablet. Most of the time I use that while on the living room couch.

I have a PC at a nice desk in a home office along with my husband, however, I rarely use that one. I'm not crazy about the set up - I really need a new chair and the desk, as it turned out, wasn't a good height for me which is a shame because my PC is awesome.

So, I use my laptop, which is great too - and I literally use it on my lap on the couch so I can watch TV. I don't use a mouse there. My husband is in awe that I can do everything without one. I had to buy one of those cooling things for it to sit on because I was getting burns on my thighs (since gone) though.

During the daytime, I'm at work (like now) and on my PC. My office setup is perfect. Wish I could replicate it at home.

I'm usually on my bed. I have my computer hooked up to a 40" screen that is a couple of feet from the foot of my bed. Not so close as to strain my eyes, but enough so I can see it. I have a big chair type pillow so I can sit up. And this is where my animals are, so I'm happy.

Currently sitting at a table in the library... but normally, I sit at a long wooden desk we bought decades ago in Scandinavia. I reckon it's 7' or 8' long and darned near 30" wide. The top is a long hardwood slab, an inch or so thick, but HEAVY!!! Supporting one end of the desk or table, there's a wooden drawer set, convenient for storing all the usual items associated with desk work... at the other end, a slender but strong hardwood leg set for support, in the "modern" Scandinavian design of that era. :rolleyes:

I always liked this desk because it has so much room between the supports at either end, it almost looks like a kitchen table, but with only one chair. Makes it easy for me to get in and out of my seat, and there's a ton of space on top... almost like an aircraft carrier. Me dear departed mum used this desk as a sewing table, since there was plenty of room to lay out projects or stacks of clothing. I like it because there's plenty of room for all three cats and my laptop!!! I leave folded blankets on it for the kittehs, they sleep up there every so often. :sleepycat:

I have an office at the front of the house with a large window looking out at the front yard. The cats like to jump on my desk and bother me for a while. Then they wander to the other part of the L-shaped desk where they look out the window.
My wife has a desk for her computer in our sun room. It faces east so she gets the morning sun. My office faces west so I get the afternoon sun. This way the cats can bother us humans at our computers throughout the day.:clapcat:

On the left side of the recliner couch, of course...reclined, with my laptop on my lap and TV tray table to my right in front of the center section of the couch, for my tea/water. I don't have a desktop or phone.
