- extreme spring cleaning part 1: the great paintening
- challenge: repaint the living room
- difficulty: the dog that we used to have chewed through the wall in the corner so there will be drywall work
- had tons of help from great friends and family (THANKS AGAIN!)

- I will prove myself, given the chance

nocommentoption tojshintfor this case (might be useful to disallow comments in some cases because it might force people to write better code)
