I've had a few days "off" trying to use my vacation time up that is use it or lose it.  I can't say I feel like I've had time off.  This isn't good use of 'vacation' time.  Yes, I've gotten some things done, but others still seem to languish and all the while there remains looming dread of the things waiting for me.

I can say that I stopped at a granite place and picked the granite I want for the half bath.  I've been on the hunt to figure out what to do about the sink given the loss of what I thought was a done deal and with worry over the care and maintenance of copper started looking for something else with pizzazz, or, at a minimum not the 'white or biscuit' options that seem prolific.  Well get this:  glass - shatter proof glass.  Gorgeous.  Made right in Jeannette PA.  I am hoping and praying that one place they list as a retailer in Washington has their products in stock so I can check them out (making good use of tomorrow as a day off) without needing to drive to Jeannette.  I need to load up some of the wall tile I plan to use, and the sample of granite to take with me.  Admittedly they're a bit pricey compared to 'white or biscuit', especially the one of the two colors, but I'm psyched about it and really hopeful that when I see it in person I'll be confident and happy.

I have another expense coming, more yard work/plants (to replace the ones that didn't survive the winter *sigh*).  I weeded again last night and today, filling two dog food bags without being meticulous.  There are some weeds that are just trying to take over - and that doesn't even include the frelling creeper vine that needs attacked out back before it takes over and destroys the bushes and another tree.

I've also been indulging in season 15 of Grey's Anatomy which popped onto Netflix.  It really is true what they say, binge-watching a show isn't great for your mental health.  I feel drained.
