That sounds too familiar.
We bought our house 25 years ago and it had wallpaper on nearly every wall.
Didja know that wall paper is good at hiding crappy half-arsed dry-wall repairs?
The previous owners must have been professional wrestlers.

At the time I couldn't afford a texture gun and compressor so I bought a hand-pump texture gun.
What a pain that was but I did the entire house with it and it turned out good, after a few practice tries.
Back then everything was on a tight budget. Some times I forget how easy I have it now.
I re-did every room in the house, except the master bath. I was burned out and said i'll get to that later.
A couple months ago was later, finally did it.

But now the rest of the house is just about due for a re-do.
Good thing my wife pointed that out because I thought it was just fine.
silly friggin me.
