More adventures in home maintenance.

A few things accomplished in Yuba City over the weekend. Repaired the curio cabinet that my wife wants to use to display her matryoshka dolls in. Replaced the exterior lighting fixtures on the rear of the house with new LED type fixtures that match the style of the fixtures on the front of the house. Each uses 9 W of power, and are far brighter than the 60 W incandescent lamps that were out there. Installation went smoothly for 2 of the fixtures, and less so for the last one on the side of the garage. All of them activate as soon as it is dark outside, and give plenty of light for our dog to see when he goes out after dark. Next weekend will be spent putting on the security screen door on the front door. This is something that I'd rather not be doing over the Memorial Day weekend, but, because of the way the house is, it's a much bigger job than originally expected. Somewhere in there may be a trip to Comcast to get another cable box replaced. The On Demand and rewind features don't work. Just unbelievable how failure prone these boxes are 'brand new' from the local office. A lot of outdoor furniture going up on the Memorial Day weekend. A few tools going up to make the installation of the screen door easier. Until next time, take care and be safe.
