This week I replaced all of the electrical boxes and outlets in the workroom. It didn’t really have to be done since the wiring all appears to be pretty new but a new room looks much better with sparkling new outlets and I’m more comfortable living in a house in which I personally did the wiring.
I mounted all of the electrical boxes to studs because the prior boxes were installed with Madison clips and Madison clips are for fucking anarchists.
Cost of mountable outlet boxes, new outlets, new light switch, and more contractor bags: $44.17. Total cost of project thus far: $346.93.
I also added one outlet – in the closet. Wifey snickered at me and you may be snickering too but I believe that every room and every closet in every house should have an outlet. Someday someone will invent a super electronic device to install in every closet that makes all of your clothes wrinkle-free and shines your shoes and makes you coffee and smells like roses and I’ll be ready with outlets in my closets and you won’t so snicker away.
