It's Time For Me To Stand Up....

I'm writing this blog post from...

A new angle! And level...

Literally :)

So for the past few years I've been telling myself...I need a stand up desk!

I'm hardly what you would call the picture of health, and seeing that I spend the majority of my day sitting...It can be good for my long term health.

However, I didn't find the right solution for my needs....Some of the stand up desks on the market are priced more than a few mortgage payments, and others are too small to hold my multiple monitors.

Until I found this solution...

While it's a bit bulky, and does raise my entire computer a good 6 inches off my current desk...This is the money shot....

Literally, PERFECT!

I'm typing this blog from it's 'upright' position and it's extremely comfortable. The keyboard is right where I like it to be (when I place is directly in front of my monitor...) and so far my productivity hasn't suffered a bit....I'm loving it so far!

The model is the Rocelco Adjustable Desk Riser...

And as my first experience with a stand up desk, I'm impressed.

A few things I would change though....

Remember above I mentioned that I placed my keyboard in front of the monitor...It's because that slide out shelf they built in for the keyboard takes up a lot of space. So I am going to see how I can remove it completely and I did improvise to find a spot for my mouse when the desk riser is flat...
