I don't know about your home, but the kitchen in our home is the main hub for ALL activity; and I have been moving things, packing things up and getting it ready for a fresh look this week.
We have two handymen (who cleaned out our gutters last week and have done other various tasks around the home and homestead that I am either incapable of doing myself (can't climb ladders or get down from one) or that Mr Golden D doesn't have the time to do with his current work schedule.
The center ceiling in the room (as with all the rooms in our house) are about 14-feet at the highest point and I just can't do it. Nope... No sirree... ain't happening.
Having my kitchen disrupted, even if only for a few hours or half a day is enough to throw my OCD lifestyle upside-down, backwards and every which way.
- I have some of my every day seasonings in a box in the third bedroom.
- My utensils for cooking in the homesteading room on a table.
- The dog's dishes are in the master bathroom
- My new garden pantry shelf is pushed into the laundry room
- The kitchen island is loaded with the microwave, wall hangings and other decor
All I have left to do is move my work area (desk) into the main living room.
We've only been in this house for two-plus years and I knew from day one I wanted to paint the walls in the kitchen. The traditional double-wide mobile home wall paper is ugly as heck. We're changing it to a light beige; AKA Brazilian Hazelnut.
So this weekend while Mr Golden D wallows away at work, I will be moving things back into place, giving the counter tops, appliances, floor a good scrubbing, washing down the cupboards and hanging up some new wall decor that says farm-homestead kitchen.
I just hope I can keep my OCD in check for the next 24-48 hours!
