LOL from Chez Money Pit! Patrick has become a pro at ceiling fan and light fixture installation. If you want a primer so Chris can join the “fun with electricity” club, let me know 😉
(And in case he falls through your kitchen ceiling from the attic en route to the light fixture in question I can provide tips on overhead drywall work and ceiling patching…)
