Every time an anchor moved a little bit I was sure it was going to pull right out of the ground.Daizyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08075279944974601962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-35725492833924733542015-11-28T21:22:40.663-07:002015-11-28T21:22:40.663-07:00Dave, the bathroom with no outlets reminds me of a...Dave, the bathroom with no outlets reminds me of an apartment I rented in college. I finally found one outlet next to the light bulb with made it very difficult to dangle a blow drier or curling iron from such a high spot. I can't imagine having no bathroom outlets at all.Daizyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08075279944974601962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-77228578955447733272015-11-28T21:20:27.342-07:002015-11-28T21:20:27.342-07:00Thanks, Lizzie.

The outside switch that I was hoping to make an indoor switch is unfortunately on the same circuit as everything else so I isn't going to be the quick fix I was hoping for.

In her kitchen, she can't run her microwave oven and her small, stand-alone electric oven at the same time because it trips the circuit-breaker. It becomes a little awkward for her when cooking some meals which need both ovens. We figured this out the hard way the first time it happened and the fridge lost its power for a little while. It was a minor PITA to reset the circuit breaker (the switch was sticky and didn't want to reset).<br /><br />Other wiring flaws include no 3-pronged outlets outside the kitchen which can limit the use and the placement of certain appliances. And the bathroom has no outlets which is sometimes a nuisance for her.<br /><br />You wear many hats, Daizy. Now you can add planting anchors and electrician to your resume.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05503978839912338538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-13728824368906346502015-11-22T06:18:55.372-07:002015-11-22T06:18:55.372-07:00Congratulations on anchor success! lets hope elect...Congratulations on anchor success! lets hope electrical success follows!Lizzie@her MFW Homeworldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13181986371554435192noreply@blogger.com
