I took the curtains down...they made going in and out a pain! I’m thinking of putting them up either in the den or on the sliding glass door between the dining room and thesunroom.

I’ll see if I can find something about getting glue off of plaster. I’ve never worked with anything on plaster before and the glue-on-drywall that I removed was more pasty/ gummy than rubbery.

I’m used to the gummy paste, I scraped off tons of it when we first bought the house, but this stuff really has me baffled. This is the wallpaper on which I had to use full-strength Greased Lightning and put plastic on top for 20-30 minutes before the wallpaper could be scraped off. The biggest problem areas are on either side of the stairs going up to the landing, and the first area I tackled before I discovered the Greased Lightning solution.

Think I’m going to go spray some GL on it and see if that dissolves it.
