I've got tonight and tomorrow night to finish my wainscotting project in the powder room, finish changing out switches and outlets on the first floor, switch out first floor hallway light, switch out two hallway lights on the second floor, and change out three switches and an outlet in the second floor hallway.

Needless to say I'll be busy.

Why the rush?

The wife has decided that we are having a 4th of July picnic for family and a few close friends.  The house warming party will be sometime in August or September (after the deck is stained, foyer light installed, second floor painted, and the shutters are painted).  Not sure what other insane projects she is going to come up with either!
