After a couple electrical projects I'm starting to feel more comfortable with this. Today I had a breakthough I have not had yet while doing a project. I got all the tools ahead of time I knew I was going to need. This was the first time I didn't have to make a second trip to get more stuff. Only took me a year and a quarter. So i finished running the new wiring in the basement to fix what our "certified electrician" had done. Ran all new wiring and used the old knob and tube holes to run the wires through. I have no idea why he didn't do that first time! Then i fished the wires up to the light switch through another knob and tube hole, instead of the hole in the wall created by my dad and i when we were ripping out the floors in the living room. Now i don't have to worry about hanging myself on wires when going to do the laundry. Electrician ftw. Still haven't gotten a hang of the formatting but above are some before and after pictures.
Bounce is also my preferred brand of fabric softener. I have tried numerous brands over the years and do not feel the others' match the quality as well as the value. I started using it just for the sheets and comforter and after I was pleased with the results I started using it on our regular laundry cycles, even the whites. I have yet to try the liquid fabric softener, have you? I am also contemplating switching from the conventional washer and dryer to a combination washer-dryer in the same machine. I think it will cut down on time as well as energy, however, I am not as familiar with the makes/models of washing machines. I also would like to try the alternative to dry cleaning with the dry clean bags you can put right in the washer. I am spending to much time on trips to the dry cleaners for the amount of shirts and suits I own that are dry clean only.
