• Invite Queen B. over to help remove wallpaper, she arrives two hours late.
  • These projects are always best started with breakfast. Something nutritious like Golden Puffs.
  • And then maybe a shopping trip.
  • Trip to Lowe’s and $125 later, time to start.
  • But its lunch time now, better eat lunch before we start the project.
  • And its such a nice day, let’s let lunch digest while we sit in the yard and drink lemonade.
  • Ok ok, so we’ll actually start.
  • Removing wallpaper is a bitch.
  • There I said it.
  • {Sorry Mom.}
  • The gel Dif is shit.
  • {I know Mom, you raised me better than that.}
  • {But its true.}
  • Carpal tunnel five minutes into an entire dining room project can really take all the fun out of the whole thing.
  • Plastic scrapers work better than metal, but you still have a buttload of adhesive left on the wall.
  • Switch to the half bottle of liquid Dif from the basement.
  • Dif water isn’t bad, but its runny- we now have more Dif in the carpet than on the walls.
  • How many calories do you earn from swearing and throwing a plastic scraper?
  • Google best wallpaper removal system.
  • Order Wallwik because their YouTube video was awesome!
  • Choose the slowest shipping method possible, and we’re done- we start removing wallpaper in a week. Ta-da!

    ugh
