wee!

so, today i actually got something done besides sit around on my ass. fighting through the misery of my mouth and throat, i taught myself, using the internet, how to rewire all of my house’s power outlets so that they are three prong grounded outlets.

all of the outlets in the house are 2prong with the exception of one or two for large equipment, washing machine as one example. this is obviously an issue due to the large number of electronics that people own that require grounding. Jenn and i have been using one outlet to get everything up and running. we were waiting for the property managers to come out and fix it, but i was so bored today i NEEDED to do something.. with the recent rain, yard work was out of the question. I was actually surprised by how easy it was to properly ground outlets when going through the replacement process.

the only truely frustrating part was in the fact that i hard to start marking all of the circuit breakers in the box. due to mis la led, or old worn labels i had to restart my episode of CSI New York 3 times and fast forward to where i left off. with no grounded outlets, i had to tunage to listed to, so i opted for TV background noise instead.

Unfortunately, i only completed the kitchen outlets today, but over the next 3 days i plan to get the whole house redone, and will kick back the upgrade costs to the prop managers for taking their dear sweet time.

I LEARNED SOMETHING USEFUL TODAY!! WOO HOO!!

Thanks to the always informative internet and all the users out there who make it helpful and refreshing to use on occasion. i am appreciative and grateful for your experience and willingness to share it on message boards and in articles.

i know i could have asked my dad or someone local, but you know how it is when you just want something done… waiting or asking seems like such a hassle.
