I don't see any real issues, am I overlooking something, will my house fall down?

Did the same thing 2 weekends ago and no issues. Get a big hammer drill and knock it out. That reminds me I need to hang that SOB still.

Stop before you get to the interior wall Use the correct type and size of anchors.
I drilled into the fireplace brick to place anchors to hang my Texas flag project (which weighs about 30 lbs) Still hanging good and looking good.

Drill the brick not the mortar. Mortar is just a sand mix and not structural enough to hang anything from. If you are drilling for something that you'll have to match the holes to make sure you punch a starter indent in the brick as your bit will want to walk on you till you get started.

This is all you need. Be easy screwing them in....easily stripped out.
You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown
Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.
