Life Tweak #57

If you sit at a desk a lot, as I do, perhaps you’ve at times experienced an irresistible urge to stand. Often, I’ll turn my chair around and work bent over the backrest just to stand. If I get deep in thought about some thing or the other, I’ll often stand and pace back & forth. I sit to the right. Now, I stand to the right. That was this afternoon’s project. A solid 8′ long surface. Four pieces, 12 bolts, and 15 minutes of assembly. $200 at Costco. Thanks to dad with his long bed pickup and enthusiastic willingness to help haul it up into the loft space. I will get some sort of bar stool, as I’m quite sure I’ll not desire to stand all the time. But mixing it up is the key — intermittency and acute stimuli, not chronic.
