So after I got smart, we went room to room, how the air vents worked with the HVAC, open and close the vents, not the temperature of the house, how to turn shower and tub off an on, adjust the water, use each appliance, including the basics of how much can fit in a washer, difference of a freezer and frig, how a vacuum works, removing dirt, how to lock windows and doors, everything!

The process looked like this: TSP wash and degrease area by switch plates, scrub baseboards, scrub angle turn valve, scrub top of vanity light bar, scrub top of door frame...then cut in ceiling of each room, then remove exhaust vent cover and vacuum around it, then paint ceiling of each room, then paint baseboards, then cut in wall color (which actually means entirely paint some tight areas), then apply first coat of wall color, then apply second coat of wall color, then hit the cut in areas again where there aren't two coats.
