More Electrical Fun

We found and fixed my circuit relatively quickly.  It was the first outlet on the circuit - a wire in it was wobbly so it would connect and disconnect with every touch.  We just tightened it and problem solved!

Dad and I then moved on to other electrical activities.  We realized that the wiring we needed done was holding up finishing the hallway.  We need to run a new circuit for a whole house fan, bathroom fan, over-the-range microwave, outdoor outlet, and outdoor light by garage.  This morning, we cut holes in the hallway and the wall that is the back of the electric panel, so we would have access.  We then drilled holes up into the attic and stuck wires up there so we can find the holes when we go up and crawl around tomorrow.

Mom did some cleaning of outlets and switches in the kitchen and living room.  Then we ate lunch and went to the store to buy wire.

In the afternoon, I drilled the hole for the microwave.  Dad got the exterior light prepared.  Mom did some drywall patching.  Generally thrilling day.  Ready to crawl around the attic tomorrow and get a circuit wired.
