“Thriving for who? I know of no one that thinks it is thriving.”

My husband spoke to 2 electrical union members that he knows, and they think things are going great, their retirement in stock market is doing so well. I asked him if they were married and must have other grocery shoppers in the family.

I can believe that.

I got quotes from 2 electrical contractors last year. Not making this up…the job was to add a small breaker switch to my house electrical box then run it to my garage which is about 60 feet from my house. There they would install a small 30 amp breaker box, just enough for a few plug ins and lights. It would entail running wire in my attic and affixing something to the side of my house for the conduit that’s about it.

I would do everything else: dig and fill the trench, wire the garage (it had been fully wired before but damned thieves had stolen the wiring before I bought it but after the last people lost the house).

The CHEAPER quote was $10 grand even, I live in a semi rural area in the mid-west. I guess it’s going to stay unpowered or I’ll do it myself.
