Kitchen Nightmares!!

Hooray- the seemingly never ending saga of the kitchen is at an end!! What joy!! It all began 5 years ago when Perfect Husband remarked to his mother that he might paint his kitchen cabinets as he didn't like the dark wood. A short while later he went on holiday and his mother came to stay to look after Whiney Dog. He came back from his holiday to find the cabinet doors had been removed and painted, but not replaced, nor had the cabinets themselves been painted. And so the kitchen stayed that way for 5 years; the painted doors languishing in the cupboard under the stairs while the cabinets remained unpainted and doorless........ then Perfect Husband met ME!! Some might call me a bully; I prefer to think of myself as someone who Gets Things Done. So we painted the cabinets, or rather Perfect Husband splashed paint randomly and at warp speed with a roller whilst I followed behind, trying to undo the chaos he had just caused- why is it that men in general seem to hate painting and have no patience for it? Anyway, cabinets done, masking tape removed, doors replaced, handles purchased and in place- it looks fab! Oh and I am spending today looking like Cruella Deville as I only noticed at 10:30pm last night that I had paint in my hair, and Perfect Husband didn't notice at all because he is colour blind and just thought it was grey hair! So I am wearing my Bambi skirt today to add to the general Disney Theme......
