I should be ready for that sometime this week, hopefully.  This is all once again thanks to neighbour Nick who came by on Friday night and we got a whole bunch of stuff done.  Total number of pot lights: 8, plus two central fixtures.  Total number of plugs: 9, plus 4 other outlets in the &#8220;shop&#8221; area.  Seems like a lot for just one room, eh?  It doesn&#8217;t seem like a lot when you are doing it, we&#8217;ll see how it looks.<\/p>\n<p>I had a heck of a time on Sunday trying to drill the second run to the backyard for the outdoor speakers, I didn&#8217;t exactly make a neat job of it.  I&#8217;m hoping the actual speakers I buy will cover the problem area&#8230;.  That&#8217;s the main problem with these projects, you have no-one to blame but yourself if it looks like crap.<\/p>\n<p>Also I need to make some sense of the speaker wiring I had done when the house was built.  I haven&#8217;t done anything with those wires yet, so I need to understand how I&#8217;m going to make use of them now.  Nikki will probably be delighted to one day not have wires hanging out of the wall everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>We are approaching the drywall now, once I get these few things out of the way it will be time to clean up a bit and order the drywall.  It will really seem like a room when we get that done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Basement update.
