Boy, I'll tell ya, my head hurts.

But, a 12-hour work shift yesterday, followed by a nine-hour workday in which I had to take on my boss directly on an issue (at least I felt really passionate about it) today, will do that. Crisis after crisis after crisis.

Let it be known, however, that I will not back down, even to my superiors, when it comes to my creative license and something I truly think is right for the pub. :) Don't mess with my cover, baby! ;) Actually, I compromised slightly in order to get what I wanted, but I did so making a good point that, in the short term it may not follow the unwritten rules of the cover, but in the long term, the relationship that would be cultivated out of doing what they ask would be monumental.

In house news, we have another open house on Sunday...hopefully, after I dropped a ridiculous $150 on advertising in the Trib and on its site, we'll get some interested buyers this time. In the meantime, we "celebrate" Valentine's Day tomorrow...

As posted weeks ago, here's a reminder of the half bath before my renovations.




















And now, without further adieu, here is the "after" shot...90 percent of the work was done by me. I'm quite proud of it, actually.



As for the rest of the TV show's renovations, well, you'll all have to come see it for yourself. Or just wait until the program airs. :)
