Switched

I have installed electrical outlets before and switches too for that matter. It isn't really hard once you make sure the power is off! Last week I swapped out a few outlets for a new color and today I found this switch that I missed so....yup ..........switched it!
it's alive....

Hey, I need your assistance. I made the mistake one time of getting nailed messing with one, and now I leave it to the experts.

@marilyn Thanks a bunch! I haven't been following that so I don't know what it is.

@grammyn It's the theme I am doing... The title of each of my photos this month is the word(s) for that day. Today is Architecture or Industrial.

@marilyn If I had waited a minute I would have seen you terrific offering!
March 26th, 2013  
Hum, this is a subject that I like and enjoy. And I am glad I do, since life has been easier not waiting for somebody else to come and do it. Glad to know you also are handy as well.
March 26th, 2013  
Awesome, you are very handy too. Nice POV and I love the bright color on the switch board.does it match your decor?

Deb
I like the POV and color. Mad electrical skills :)

It does look a bit like a little dragon poking its head out of its cave. Electrics scare me having had a belt of it as a child, so clever, clever you, you have my respect! :)

@anazad511 Ana! I would never have guessed you have electrician skills! I know what you mean about not having to wait! ;~} I think that is what motivates me too!

@smithak Thanks Smitha! I am hoping that red will be behind the plate ! If it isn't there might be a problem! ;~}

@deburahiru LOL! thanks a bunch, Deb!

@silverlight I can understand being careful if you have been "bit" before! I like your analogy! Thanks so much, Cheryl.

@grammyn - Oh Katy, Katy, Katy, you would be surprised... I'm a little box full of surprises... LOL. Yes, electricity, carpentry, painting, masonry, plumbing... and I love it.
March 26th, 2013  
@anazad511 LOL! you sure are! you have MAD skills if you can do all that AND grow a garden! I am seriously impressed!
March 27th, 2013  
@grammyn - It's not funny when you are a perfectionist... LOL And please don't forget my cooking, which is for what I am known.
March 27th, 2013  
@anazad511 Oh, Mydear, I knew there would be more ! I also didn't mention photography, and I am sure there others as well!
March 27th, 2013  
Oh...if only you had mentioned this talent when you were here.......!!!!!!!!! :-))
March 27th, 2013  
@ruthmouch LOL! We had no time for construction!!!

Ah, ha! I have changed a few electrical outlets/ switches in my time. Lamp plugs, too. I'm out of practice, but it's really a pretty simple task...once you get over your fear of being electrocuted. LOL
I remember years ago, one of my supervisors at work asked me if I could type. I told him "I'm a modern woman. I can change a light switch, but I DON'T type." Actually, I'm not such a modern woman, I just didn't want to be saddled with whatever typing chore he had in mind. ;-)

Now, plumbing I'm no good at. Don't have the strength to loosen or tighten those pipe fittings.

@pasadenarose I am impressed with your skill and I am sure you could do the light plumbing too.. I applaud you for not wanting to be labeled as a typist only and embrace that concept that women are as capable as men in almost any skill.
