I awoke early Friday morning to the sounds of Sharron ripping out quarter round with a crowbar and hammer. Music to my ears! By the end of the day, she had removed all of the tile, underlayment and associated staples from the hallway. We now have a huge pile of 4'x4' panels staged on the deck for disposal. 
I painted the dining room ceiling and spackled and sanded the walls, which still need one final sanding and perhaps some spackling in one corner where I applied drywall tape today. Meanwhile, I began the process of installing 2" deck screws in the newly exposed plywood in the hallway to eliminate squeaking boards. I also went to the basement and removed all of the wood shims between the joists and floorboards. These had been installed years ago to minimize floor squeaks in the kitchen.
