Ed and I decided that the kitchen/family room floor needs refinishing and the room needs painting, so we hired a fellow to come and do those things but for some unknown reason we also said that we would prep the room, i.e. remove the wall paper, wash the walls, fill holes and cracks remove the baseboard. I forgot how much work it is to get a room ready for painting. The saddest part of all is the room isn't going to look all that different when we are done as we are painting the room the same colour --- we both like the colour and it matches the area rug. So the only difference will be the lack of wallpaper and maybe furniture rearrangement and a shinier floor.

Ed's removing the baseboard, not an easy task as they were caulked (as they should have been) and were in place the first time the floors were finished.
