Lesson Learned
Suppose you were remodeling a room in your house. And suppose you naively thought that steaming the wallpaper off, one loooooong strip at a time, would be the hard part. WELL, YOU'D BE WRONG. No, the hard part is scrubbing the slimy, gluey wallpaper paste residue off the walls with TSP solution and then wiping with a sponge. And then you'd still have to worry about the fact that you decided not to prime. But then again, it's not too late, because it's going to take you until next April to finish cleaning the walls. My in-laws will be here on June 30. I'm not quite sure how this project is going to finish itself by then.
