You would think that being on vacation, I would have more time to update this �journal�. You would think� We spent the better part of Saturday, Sunday, and Monday working on the dining room project. Saturday, stripping the wallpaper alone took 4 of us (Codeman and The Lovely Chelsea chipped in with several hours of scrapping and peeling) over 6 hours to complete before I could slap a coat of ceiling paint on the�.ceiling. Add to that part of the day on both Wednesday and Thursday (squeezed in between trips to N.P.P. Lake for catfishing), and the days and hours have flown by. I�ll do what I can to update you on it all later- We have two different graduation ceremonies to attend at the same time tonight (Lease to Chelsea�s junior college event, me to our niece Shelby�s 8th grade diploma-passing-out-thing). For now- step one of the stripping process�. Lease has wanted to change the dining room since about 2 years after we moved into our home (that was in 1987 when she grew tired of the gaudy print in the photo I uploaded before this one). We kept putting it off because we knew getting the 50+ year old paper off of the wall would be a major job. Little did we know.... This photo was shot by Lease about 1 hour into the stripping process. We had already used up a full bottle of wallpaper stripping compound, and had barely made any headway. The printed area of the paper came off relatively easily (with the exception of the painted areas of the wall under said paper- but more on that later). What remained underneath was our first (bad) surprise....
