It has been a few days, let me give you an update. We are still working on these damn ceilings! There are 47 steps to getting a smooth ceiling.
Step 1- remove damn popcorn
Step 2- re-plaster damn ceiling
Step 3- sand the damn bumps
Step 4- apply 2 damn coats of primer
Step 5- re-re-plaster any remaining damn bumps
Step 6- re-sand any damn stubborn bumps
Step 7- apply at least one coat of damn paint
Ok, so there are only 7 steps, but they are damn annoying steps so it seems like a lot more. There is one room completely done. The 3x5 ft. entry. It's not a lot but it is damn pretty!

notice how the metal shapes in the light mimics the door- I'll let you think that I did that on purpose

oooohhh, pretty. 

 The rest of the rooms are in various states of ceiling smoothness. Once the damn ceilings are done then we have to replace light fixtures and spray paint the vent covers so they look as pretty as the ceilings. The goal is to finish all the rooms this weekend. It better happen because I am damn tired of this project!
