So Joe says to me, after he rips down the yellow paneling, "I have good news and bad news."
The good news is, the wall we want to take down is only carrying the load of the ceiling, so we can remove it without causing the house to collapse.
The bad news is, there is a radiator pipe running up that wall, which will prevent us from opening up the doorway as much as we had wanted. And we will have to get a plumber to move that pipe so we can still have our half-wall without a column. The plumber comes tomorrow morning to discuss work-around options.

Dave's going to have some figuring to do to keep within the budget. Lots of luck!
Oh wow! I didn't realize you were starting all this so soon! Instead of hunting for eggs, you should have had the kids pack a box for you. :)
Everyone did help pack and move stuff to the basement. Our dining room and living room are also filled to the gills - and we haven't even removed half the stuff from the kitchen yet, we really only removed the stuff on that one wall. Now I'm wondering what we're going to do with the new cabinets when they are delivered. I don't know where we'll put them!
And you wanted a new kitchen!!!!!! Oh duh!!!!
Hope you have enough Tylenol for those headaches you two are going to have!!!!! Or maybe some pain killers!! hehehe
