Goodbye purple kitchen

So you know when you finally decide you don't like something and in fact to have to stare at it every single day makes you crazy and hate it that much more??
That is my kitchen.
And I CAN NOT STAND LOOKING AT IT ANY LONGER!!!!
I need a change, something light and airy, something FRESH.
None of that was going to happen with this purple backsplash.
IT IS PURE TORTURE TO REMOVE IT!
One by one those tiny mosaic tiles come off, one by one.
THERE MUST BE A MILLION OF THEM!!
My back hurts, my shoulders hurt, my arms are cut up from the tiny slivers of glass everywhere, my hands have blisters and my wrists feel broken.
After 12 hours of chipping away, with my children fending for themselves and one crying baby at my feet, I am 20 min away from being tile free.
I think I might save the little patch I have left for TJ so he can feel as awesome as I do.
It will still be a long road to get the kitchen to where I want it to be but the good news, 
I started! And there is no going back.
