TGIF!!

Was back at the gym tonight after a nap. Walked over there in a sweater and a hoodie (sweater not necessary). Stopped off at McDonalds on the way home for a Classic grilled chicken sandwich and two double Quarter Pounders w/o cheese. (Ate the chicken when I got home and wrapped up the Quarter Pounders for microwaving over the weekend.) Been watching TV.

Hopefully today was the last of the holiday junk food at work. I may have put on a couple of pounds, but I'm still under 160.

Was totally surprised today to get a bonus at work. (It was better than last year's.)

Haven't even run the A/C today. Opened the whole place up when I got home from work, since it was in the low 70s. Perfectly comfortable for napping, with the fan blowing on me (as always). Supposed to get down into the 50s tonight.

(Tried to get rid of the flash.)

Watching Paula Deen cooking with Liza Minelli. What a treat! (Liza looks great, though she acts like she's sedated.) (Took a shot of the TV screen, but the flash landed right in the middle - should have taken at a different angle.) (Tired and I'm on vacation.)

My bonus covers my closing costs for the recent refi, but I'm thinking about redoing a bathroom. (Will cost more than the bonus and entail a plumber.) Want to get a new stone-topped vanity and a cool toilet and have the fiberglass tub enclosure reconditioned, plus a new tile floor. (The fiberglass enclosure is very low maintenance and I like it, and think a future buyer would appreciate it's practicality [no mildew, e.g.].) Also need some drywall work to repair damage from the apartment above. (But I'm still paying on the kitchen re-do and haven't even done the backsplash yet.) Just thinking.

I could stand to have this bathroom out of commission for a while, since I have two. (The other one is off my bedroom, and also needs work.) But I think having the public bathroom redone first would be smart. It's basically only cosmetic stuff. I'm not knocking out walls. (This apartment has a great layout for its size.)
