This post highlights a couple (ahem) less than traditional ideas for your office. My advice for the day? EVERY one should have an office in a fracken tree! Now who wants to make me one? 😉 Oh and as always...

I’m not afraid to take a stand… Everybody come take my hand… We’ll walk this road together, through the storm…Whatever weather, cold or warm… Just let you know that, you’re not alone…Holla if you feel that you’ve been down the same road.
