    Scrap paper that I have covered in notes throughout the day.

    And unbent paperclips... I have a nasty habit of unbending the clip while on phone calls they are never quite the same again.
    And I my doodle mercilessly in my notebook.

    Stashed away I hoard a huge bag of sugar free chocolate covered espresso beans *shhh* I have 3-4 on occasion. The bag lasts forever but I am glad I have something safe to indulge in.

    Photos, pens/sharpies/highlighters (I have two cupfuls and more in my desk), tissues (3 boxes), post its of all kinds (5 on my desk alone and more hiding), hand lotion, tea, grab n go snacks and plants (I'm down to 3 currently).
    I figure I spend just as much time in my office as I do at home, so it had better be comfy!

    Post-it's. I seriously have a drawer full of them.

    I also hoard plastic spoons and napkins. I hate walking to the lunchroom, which is at the complete opposite end of my building, just to grab a spoon for my yogurt each morning.

    My pens and my stapler I guard like a pit-bull
    I recycle scraps of half used paper and put them in an empty Kleenex box instead of using up the notepads.
    lib balms??!! All my lip balms end up in my drawer for some reason and about once a month i clean them out and get them all back home only to find later they all end up in my work drawer again


    Oh... and dried apricots.. always have a stash of those in case i get those sweet munchies

    Paper, just reading this and thinking about how much paper is at my desk I feel sick. Presently I have (Paper guides and reference are my security blanket, and a fair bet of it does not have an electronic version.)

    10-report covers stuffed full
    3-1 inch binders
    5-4 inch binders
    My big metal binder thing, I don't know what to call it. Its a metal base that you insert 10 1 inch binder rings into after you have filed them, so there earlier to access and read. Which is full.
    2-2 inch binders full
    a big reference book
    4 medium size note books for observations
    a drawer in my filing cabinet filled with old request that I had written up to me, that have either been completed ( I like to hold them for a couple of months before I recycle) or I could not get hold of people (I keep these longer)
    A folder on my desk with request I am currently working
    Plus a large pad or paper I use for scrap
    and a large note book I bring to meetings
    and another folder I keep my own performance review papers in
    calenders

    And I considered before I left today (but didn't do) emptying my recycling bin as the papers have passed the rim. I so sorry trees.

    Plus Disney Princess items, dolls, office supplies, calenders, stamps, etc.
