got another estimate on the whole bathroom situation last night. it was very interesting. this guy gave me two options... the one that the previous company had suggested, as well as the option i had had in mind to begin with. and his recommendation was actually for the one i had wanted, because logistically the first option would trash my bathroom in the process. unlike the previous guy, he said my bathroom isn't an "emergency situation", it's bad but not as awful as other homes he'd seen. AND... he recommended that i not get the two trees removed. which surprised me. he said that if he seals up the outside of the house, the roots won't be able to get in, and so there's no point in taking the trees out. so his advice will save me $1500 on tree removal, as well as about $1000 on the actual bathroom. now i just have to figure out where i'm going to come up with $3000 to actually get the thing done. ugh.

work has been, surprise surprise, nuts. i have several projects that are all starting to occur at the same time, and i'm juggling like crazy. but i refuse to let myself get in the situation i was in last winter, running 7 days a week on 5 hours of sleep and working the rest of the time. that ran me into the ground. at the very least, i'm forcing myself to go out dancing once a week. i already have a slew of things on my calendar for october (yay!), so darnit, I'M GOING TO HAVE FUN EVEN IF IT KILLS ME.

oh, and could someone bring the sun back? it's not there when i get up in the morning, and i'm not real happy about it. this full-spectrum light box thing helps keep me awake, but i kinda like the sun better. kthxbye.
