Well, I’m taking the scenic route to deconstructing my office/library! As my husband was planning a trip, I spontaneously quipped, “Give me $100 and I’ll paint the kitchen while you’re gone.” Good heavens, I was not really expecting him to hand me cash the next day!
If I had considered the amount of work involved, I would have asked for $500 and four good-looking workmen!

However, I am still excited, emptying and scrubbing down the kitchen, and planning how to stretch my funds as far as possible in redecorating. Daughter Mélange is helping to settle my indecisions in the details, and everyone else is cheering me on. I really want to do the work myself!
“Scenic route” or no, my bulldozer and dump truck are still headed for my workroom. But for now, to the kitchen! ("Before" below. Yes, these are before-cleaning views! I can embarrass myself, thank you!)

whaaat, the missionaries didn't want to help??
