Mission Accomplished

I finished painting the kitchen and I realized as I was doing it that it is never just as simple as buying the paint and painting . You have to remove the things from the wall and fill in holes. It's like the in book If you give a mouse a cookie he's going to want a glass of milk to go with it and if you give him glass of milk etc...
If you give a Cyndi a can of paint she's going to want to paint the kitchen and if she wants to paint the kitchen she is going to have to move the big hutch away from the wall. And if she is going to move the hutch away from the wall she's going to need help because the hutch weighs about as much as a baby elephant. And if she is going to need help she is going to have to ask her husband to help her. Once the hutch is moved she will discover a multitude of dust bunnies and then she will have to pull out the vacuum to vacuum them up and once the vacuum is out she'll realize the whole house needs to be vacuumed but she'll say "screw that I just want to paint the kitchen!"
So yes, the kitchen got painted and the dust bunnies behind the hutch and refrigerator got vacuumed up but no, the rest of house did not.
