Soffit spackled, sanded, primed, repainted and lights reinstalled

Not perfect but a lot better than it was before, and with the right paint ("Sateen Lustre Enamel" vs. "Interior Flat"). Ready for the cabinets to go in. I can always go back and touch up the areas I'm not happy with, and not even get out the sander. The glossy paint is showing up more imperfections I hadn't noticed before (but the most glaring ones have been corrected). Such a simple boxy structure has to be totally smooth and sharp-edged, IMHO.

This can all be easily fixed. No need to obsess over it (I tell myself).

IMHO. It never hurts to go thru life with those (HOs). I value yours. And I love watching your project unfold and hearing the details. Renovations have always seemed so complicated to me. Perhaps you'll instill courage in me to go forward in my kitchen some day.
