Mornin everyone.

Yesterday was a bad day for me. Just a lot of bad emotions. I had to take some pain pills and I felt bad about that too. A lot of the time I hate the way my brain works.

Not much planned for the day. We have to run to the thrift store to drop off some donations. Other than that I have no idea what today'll hold.

QOTD: bathroom. I'd put a bathtub back in. My bedroom is the runner up but almost tied with the kitchen.

food is so up in the air.

my pics are of the cats and one of a piece I made a few years ago.

Good morning QJB and menuers,

Oh JB, sorry you had a tough day. You've got this! Hope today is better. Didn't know kitty Xanax was a thing! The vet might have a prescription that can help.

QOTD- My bathroom! It's tiny to the point that when the door is open about 90 degrees, it hits the toilet. Hotel bathrooms are huge compared to mine. I would love to put in a pocket door, tear out the tub/shower combo for a walk-in shower, and move the pedestal sink. Since I have a one bathroom house, people keep advising me not to take out the tub, though.

Yay for Friday! I'm supposed to be off today but have already been emailing with one of my organizations that I'm trying to finalize an agreement in January with. The lawyers are engaged and want language updates. Today being the 13th makes me nervous since the end of the month is coming fast, so I'm hoping my ultrasound is on time and I'll take a mobile meeting in the car with them when it's done. I'm off at the end of the month for the trip to New Orleans, so that's something else I'm keeping in mind for finalizing this.

Glad to be back home from DC. Conferences and meetings that require so much active socialization are super emotionally draining, so I'm ready to hug a tree and embrace the quiet for a while. I can manage being fully "on" for a few days but it is hard! Looks like I have upcoming conferences in Dallas and maybe in Chicago next month.

Accountability- Good! I deconstructed both the breakfast burrito and lunch wrap while successfully avoiding pastry trays and chips. Had a kefta bowl from the Mediterranean place in the airport but I think everything I picked was okay. Spinach base!

Exercise - Hopefully when I get back home today with dogs and stuff.

Menu

Late menu day since I'm fasting for the ultrasound. Protein bar, water, yogurt, maybe a burger patty at home!

Pics are the sunrise on the way to DC and the capital. Have a great day!

Will do! If I can get the details locked down, it's around V-day for a conference. It's four days...I would not go for that long! Really hoping to make it, though.

It's good for a through-the-acrylic plane photo. Had to put the window down after that because people were trying to sleep. Sleeping after the sun comes up.:)

Unless you plan on selling your home in the next few years, replace the tub. Your comfort and enjoyment are far more valuable then the value of having a tub for resale. The new buyers can redesign the tiny bathroom if they want.

I'd totally redo the bathroom, do a walk in and move things around. Plus, the renovation itself will be attractive to buyers.

My niece shared this on FB earlier this week (she's not the original author) and it resonated so much. Very similar to your take on fixing the bathroom to enjoy it for yourself! The living in fear of damaging some theoretical resale value is a real thing.
