Thanks for the video. My dad used to talk me through all my little fixes but now that he's gone I second guess myself sometimes. But your video confirmed that I still knew all the steps he taught me years ago. :)

Thank you so much for sharing that with me. My father has been gone for 15 years now. He was NOT a handyman at all, but he always told me to do my best at anything I do. I have forgotten the sound of his voice now but still remember all the little tips he gave me. I am working on 2 more videos now, let me know if you need tips on anything and I will do my best to walk you through it. Thank you, this is why I am trying to do the videos. Have a blessed day.

No need to be afraid, turn the power off and you have no worries. I should have said to turn the power off at the breakers, just happy I can help someone save some money and still have nice items with the gratification of doing it all on your own.

@@darryladams6193 So I did follow your instructions and it went smoothly. There were two problems with the lights that were originally installed when our house was built in 1997. In the master bath, the electrician who installed the original light fixture never connected the ground wire. And in the guest bath, instead of just using a wood screw (or at the most a wood anchor insert) chopped a couple of big holes in the wall and used molly bolts. The new fixture is narrower, so now I have two big holes I have to patch. Wonder what other surprises lurk behind the drywall. Sheesh. Anyway, thanks for your video. Bert
