Replacing the Outside Light

Did not happen yet... I went to Lowes, stared at all the possible exterior light fixtures, selected and opened the one I wanted in the store (add that to the list of How I'm becoming my mother), and bought any supplies I didn't already have. Then I read and memorized the directions and was ready to install! I went down to turn off the breaker, lest I electrocute myself on my first real home improvement task... alas! Not only is most of the handwriting illegible on the breakers, there are five labelled "light." Disenchanted, I set the job aside for now, untile Ricci (Pauly's friend) can get over here to tell me which one to turn off! Stay tuned for adventures in the dishwasher and the tub....

You are my hero! There are many things that I will fix and do myself, but I have a weird phobia of electrical things. I actually plug my ears watching Jer fix outlets.

Plumbing- I plunged the bathtub and was thoroughly pleased with myself!
