   I just finished the hardest home repair task of my entire life. 😵💫

   #Electrical work is bonkers!

   The hall light fixture hasn't worked in a while. I detached it from the ceiling but was left with only 3" clearance between the dangling fixture & the ceiling. Cramming my hands & neck to see & reach in there was almost impossible. I don't know how men with their larger hands, work within those bloody tiny electrical boxes.

   Finally found & replaced the faulty (melted) wire. What a struggle!
