I also almost lost my shit. My dog was crapping everywhere, I was having a nervous breakdown every other day, it was the worst.

The light tubes were about $250-$300 and our roofer charged about $25/tube to do the exterior install work. We did the attic tube and interior installation ourselves, a very easy task. My only regret is not doing more (well, that and not hunting down the kind that cast rainbows all around your house.)krisgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814656844817347020.post-41185395923481260052013-09-12T07:55:12.047-07:002013-09-12T07:55:12.047-07:00You guys are the best enablers. :)You guys are the best enablers. :)Heatherhttp://www.justagirlwithahammer.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814656844817347020.post-63709250877345420312013-09-12T07:54:44.938-07:002013-09-12T07:54:44.938-07:00I know, right?

If you ever get to the point of putting on a new roof I highly recommend skylights, we did 3 of the long tube kind and it's so nice to have the natural light coming in. I like your fixtures, you can always change them down the road since you got the wiring done right anyway.;-)Hannahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814656844817347020.post-46214686486914854252013-09-11T20:53:59.891-07:002013-09-11T20:53:59.891-07:00This post makes me wonder if you and I are living ...This post makes me wonder if you and I are living parallel, intergenerational lives. We are currently involved in an insulation project, AND, I am abstaining from alcohol to try to combat insomnia.
