Currently stripping popcorn ceiling on entire first floor, shoring and patching dry wall on all walls and ceiling, painting entire first floor, and replacing most fixtures and rugs. May not sound like much, but it's full time. First spruce up place has had in 21 years. Also replacing pads and rotors on car when I need to take a brake (intended) from the dust and endless sanding.

Stripping popcorn ceiling

Doesn't sound like much

These are mutually exclusive. The best case scenario for popcorn ceiling is that it's a tedious pain to remove, and it only gets worse from there (painted, asbestos, etc.)
