I bought most of the gear from Shopee or Temu so it was dirt cheap (the 2nd monitor was less than 50 euros and tbh you can feel that cheapness, but it works fine... and just as I said that the monitor sparked out for 1 second... I hope thats not a habit). A standing desk was something I had at work, I didn't use it often but I do find it stretches you out a bit to stand sometimes while working, so I took the chance to get one for less than 75euros....lol I mean... why not.
I also got some cheap as chips podcast lights on stands, which really do make a massive difference to the quality of video recordings I want to make for book readers and tutorials.

I had expected to spend a few grand on new gear, but I barely broke 750.... impressive.
So now things are in place its time to find the right time to do work...we need a bit more routine in our lifes. The Jetlag, combined with basic shopping/settling in has been rough, but its a new year so its time to try to make some new routines... not resolutions, they never work.. just a pattern of behaviour that will help us adjust to our new lives as unemployed layabouts :D..sorry retiree's.
The office is also my music room, and I've bought a few things there, which are included in the 750 or so including a cool cheap copy of my roland street cube amp.. This isn't quite complete though, need my electrics to arrive later this month, or next then I can noodle about a bit more (sore fingers permitting)
Yes.. I'm very very happy with my new home office/studio. I hope to be quietly productive here and get all those things I wanted to do done, y'know the things work got in the way of... :D
Ahthankyew
