Unless you get the cap message.
I work from my couch everyday. I set up my monitors on a tv stand and moved part of my sectional couch right in front of them, pretty much the greatest thing ever.
I'm at the desk about half the time and the couch half the time. I just put the laptop on my lap and feet on an ottoman. It's not ergonomically amazing but as long as I shift around every so often and don't sit for too long, it's okay. I don't use an external mouse when I'm on the couch, though. I think the Computers and Gear post had some non-desk set ups?
That's the only way I turk. I have a lap desk that I put the laptop and mouse on. And sit on one of the recliner ends of my sectional so I can adjust my position every so often. I can look out into my backyard or look at my tv for breaks.
I do use a mouse and use my knee for a mousepad.
thanks for the link. Will check it out.
you can see my setup in that thread. It's super basic and I actually got the lap desk for free, lol!I do use a mouse and use my knee for a mousepad.

I'm looking at something like this to turk with my laptop in bed (it's $250 at the manufacturer's site). It's pretty big though.

Same. My grocery store still has Thanksgiving and Christmas stuff in their clearance section, though. So maybe I'll pick up a box of pumpkin spiced muffin mix, a chocolate Santa, AND some cheap Valentine's candies.
I work from the kitchen table, which has a direct view of the TV in the living room. My kitchen table is high enough that I can both stand and sit. Sometimes I will take the laptop to the couch, but I cant stand using the couch cushion as a mouse pad. I've looked at various trays that would come over the side of the couch, but I don't think Mrs. Escobar would ever allow it.
I work from the couch all the time. b/f drilled holes in the bottoms of the legs of the coffee table and stuck in wheels from Home Depot, so I can now move it back and forth depending on where I want the laptop to be, and whether we're using it as a coffee table or a place to work.
im currently eating those mellowcreme pumpkins from halloween!
