Wallpaper everywhere!!

I knew there was a lot of wallpaper in this house, but good grief! Every single room is wallpapered - including inside all the closets. This wallpaper is vinyl, too - so it takes longer to remove. Basically I have to remove the vinyl cover, then the paper backing.

And the kicker - when the plastic tub surround was removed - wallpaper behind it! The downstairs should be completely

The water was turned on today, and I was told to turn on the hot water to let the air bleed out of the system as the hot water heater filled up. Well, the bathroom sink overflowed, since the drain was slow (which was unknown -since the water was off). Got the water cleaned up pretty well, although there was some seepage that is visible on the ceiling of the kitchen. There are old water stains in the same areas, so not totally unexpected.
