Don’t go to Goodwill that much anymore. I definitely did a lot when I was poor and then when budgets were tight. Thought I’d check them out to see if they had only VHS players so I could throw one in the bedroom. Instead, ended up finding a 22 inch HP monitor for $20. I wasn’t planning on getting another monitor for my downstairs setup, but the old 14” square one from my parents old Dell was only cutting it as a second monitor but not something I could reasonable work on, even with it being the second. Okay, so the picture on this one isn’t as amazing as I would have liked (I definitely wish it could be set to be a wee bit brighter) but again for $20 it’s a steal, especially when I’m seeing it for $70 – $200 on Ebay and the like. Guess this means I’ll be working downstairs more often now, though I have come to realize going back and forth between my upstairs “work-work” office to downstairs breaks up the day a bit and allows my body to reset (it does better changing desks, chairs, beds, etc., throughout the day/week). I do love this monitor for blogging and writing so far, so maybe it’ll encourage me to finish my book.

Cheers.
