So... this week, I've been a pretty big brat around my house. There are lots of things contributing to this, not the least of which was the recent vote that announced our country will join the ranks of the screwed up socialists. But I'm not mad, really.
Anyway, despite me taking my disappointment and frustration out on Billy, he still did a really nice thing for me last night. Cause that's the kind of guy he is.
Since his new job deals with laying cable and attaching said cable to wall outlets, I thought he might be able to re-wire our light switches so that they actually made sense. We have a few double switches that just don't seem to jive with common sense. For example, the switches in the bathrooms... the first one is the fan, and the second one (farther from the door) is the light. For 6 months, I've walked into the bathroom and turned the wrong one on first. We have a similar deal with our kitchen and dining room lights. It's annoying.
So, last night, Billy spent a lot of his time looking online and talking to someone at Home Depot, and fixing the apartment complexes shoddy job. So, when I woke up this morning... my kitchen light switch made sense! I love it.
To top it off, the old switch plate broke, and Billy got a new creme colored one that blends in so much nicer than the tan one did.
I'm a happy woman today. I love my handy man.

Wow, you're from Indiana? I noticed that you referenced Evansville a few posts ago, but I just figured that there was more than one Evansville, and that didn't mean you were from IN. :) Anyway, I grew up in Greenfield (just east of Indianapolis), but moved away about 10 years ago.
