I wanted to Thank You for posting those pictures. I swear, it was the kick in the butt I needed to tackel my OWN kitchen/diningroom area. I am proud to say that after 3 1/2 hours of cleaning, broken into 70 minutes segments, my kitchen/dining areas are usable again. My DH even got "inspired" & tossed some HUGE boxes that were in the dining room from when we moved....in OCTOBER! He was insisting on keeping them. For what I have no idea. Too bad most of the remainder of my home looks almost as bad. Not for long though. !THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
