It is a workday for me today, but I absolutely wanted to celebrate the fact that WOYWW is online for the 900th time. What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday is an event I was involved with for years; an event I sometimes miss but for which I barely find time anymore due to my job and other commitments.
However, in some way you may call my job ‘creative’ too (I work in the restoration studio of the Zeeuws Archief ), ’cause I handle all sorts of paper all day long and today there is something interesting on my desk.
It will take some time *grin* to smoothen and repair the paper so that the public can handle this book again, but page by page I will get there….
Thanks for stopping by and uhrm, ladies: congratulations on this 900th anniversary!
(I hope to be able to visit your blogs too in the next days, see ya!)
great to see you on this 900 woyww. typing one handed due to a broken wrist. take care helen #4
Marit! It’s so lovely to see you on the list again, thanks for stopping by. Wow, that book looks like it’s way beyond repairing, you’ll have to show us it again after you’ve wrought your magic touch!
Happy 900th WOYWW!
Hugs LLJ 5 xx
Happy Week 900 WOYWW!
Oh wow. That pile o’paper makes me long to riffle the page. A big no no, I know but still. What a massive job it will be but I bet a labor of love. Enjoy. Mush scroll about and see the latest Chronicles – do you still do them? My favourite part of my visits to your desk.
Happy to see you for 900, maybe see you for 1000…?

Hi it’s great to look back at what everyone’s been up to. That looks like a lot of work you have there. Would love to see how you progress with it. Sending big woyww hugs, Angela x12x
Happy 900th WOYWW! Like you I haven’t joined in with this in ages as I don’t do much in the way of crafting other than the occasional card and my diary style journal. Lovely to hear your news… what a challenge that book is going to be! With love & God Bless, Caro xx #19
So lovely to see you joining in the fun today and seeing a little about what you’re busy with.
Hugs,

Hi Marit, long time no see! Just popping in to say hello and wishing you a happy #900 in the Netherlands! xx zsuzsa #23
Hi Marit. It’s so good to catch up with you again. Your job sounds so interesting but you must require so much patience to get all those pages restored.
Happy 900th WOYWW

oh wow… that book is going to take some handling! I would love to see it when you have finished restoring! Happy 900th! Susan #15
Belated happy WOYWW 900, Maria! My goodness! That is going to be an incredible restoration project and I don’t envy you one bit. I’m not surprised you have little time to craft anymore but projects like this one is much more impressive. Have a great week. Elizabeth #27
I tried commenting several times yesterday but my comment refused to publish. It’s so good to see you! Thanks for being a part of WOYWW. Happy 900th. Sarah
WOW it’s Marit!!
I cannot tell you how pleased I was to see your name on the list and then to recieve such a lovely post from you – that really made my day! Like you it will take me a while to get around and these days I don’t manage to be here every week – kudos to those that do. So I am not always here. Even though I am retired I seem to have less time than ever. A big reason these days is my gorgeous grandson – I am soon to be a grandmother again! – and may be everything just takes me a little longer these days, especially the gardening! Thank goodness my husband likes to do it as I really cannot manage it. I am paying for all my years of gardening with sore hands and knees.
Your job looks very cool but must require a lot of patience. Sending 3every best wish your way and thank you for making me smile. Happy 900th WOYWW, love n hugs, Cindy xx
wow, welcome back, its lovely to see so may posts from when I first started blogging. Loving the restoration piece, archivists and record keepers are so key and the restoration of the pieces key, fair play. Kyla
Wow Marit, I think you win this week with the most interesting desk. Crazy you can restore such old documents like this…takes lots of time and patience! Very interesting indeed! Thanks for popping over to say hello as well! Happy WOYW?W #900! 🍂Sue Kment #31
