You know you've reached the "Obsession" point when you're stripping wallpaper and skim coating by flashlight.

The paper in the hall was painted and skim coated over several times.  I don't understand why they did that as they must have known it would soon crack and peel again. Wallpaper removal has a bad rap.  I say just get it off of there!

The room is fully skim coated!  We're ready to sand, prime and paint the first room!! YAY!
