my own little space

How’s my working area look like?

As my promise, here is the latest picture. Taken this morning just before I start working so that everything still in place. From left to right, my tumbler(partly taken); paper glue; a box where I put my pens, scissor, clips, paper fastener and other little things; a wind chime still in a case; a flower vase less the flower; picture of a virgin mary (posted above); a bible; a mobile phone holder where I placed the rosary; my baby picture; a lucky kitty figurine; Santa Claus (hanging above); candle holder; my folder where I placed loose documents; my computer monitor and a keyboard.

What do you think? Do I need to rearrange things in my desk or remove everything? But of course except the PC otherwise how will I work?
