Work Day #1

Jeff and I had an entire work day planned today at the house. Jeff was going to putty in the holes all over the house, and I was going to set up the painter's tape and start some of the cleaning.

I was able to put up the painter's tape all over the main floor and clean the main floor toilet bowl and bathtub and wipe down the living room floor.

Jeff used the outlet tester he bought, and found out that we have power in only 25% of the house. So he is going to purchase a wire-tester, to see which wires are live. If we find out that they are all live wires, but just not installed correctly, Jeff will be able to fix it all. If we find out that the wires are not live, that means that the wires need to be replaced. which would not be good, since we would have to rewire the whole house - which would cost about $4,000-$5,000 - which we obviously don't have. eek!

Jeff is going back to the house now to check the wires. So I am busy praying that all the wires are live, but just not installed properly, so then we can get it all repaired with little to no cost.
