Something Odd Happened on the Way to the Soffits

Over the past two weekends, I've pulled off the last of the country rose wallpaper in our kitchen. It's gone. All of it. Gone, gone, gone. Even though we're planning to take down the soffits eventually, I don't know what "eventually" means. For us, "eventually" can mean "two days from now" or it can mean "before the little angel graduates from high school." So I painted them anyway. And the kitchen ceiling.

When it was all said and done, the kitchen went from "heinously ugly" to "needs updating." And just like that, some iceberg fell off my psyche and drifted away.

Then it started snowing on the first day of spring break, and I didn't even care.

Huh.

Editor's Note: I don't have pictures. I seem to have chosen the busiest week of 2011 at work in which to conduct this home improvement, hence my recent radio silence. 'Cuz that's how I roll. Updates to come!
