I was tired of looking at the 80's light bar in our bathroom, so I found a nice cheap second hand light on Craigs List to replace it. I'm re-painting the room in the sweep of cosmetic improvements before the house goes on the market, so we're going a little more new millenium. I was happy that I could go on youtube and look for instruction videos on installing a vanity light. And I did it. First time I've ever removed and reinstalled a light fixture and am I ever proud. At my age I don't do new things every day (although maybe I should). Yaaaaay me. Of course, it took me several hours because I had to recut drywall and install the mounting plate and of course all the sizes didn't match from the old fixture to the new one, but I did it. And I didn't have to wait around the house for yet another repair person to stand me up. Next up the new sink installation in the down bath. Stay tuned.
