Wiring update (see below)

Well a friend who works with Tim came over and helped him with figure out what to do. Praise God it isn't much just annoying - the previous people who did wiring work spliced new tubing to the knob and tube so it looks like it's new when you open the box behind the light but it's not! Thankfully it is only to a few lights and nothing else which is any fix. Hubby got some of done last night -- the other will be done today. We may just have to have one less switch though as part of the wiring split when he was pulling it due to shoddy workmanship previously. Oh well it's not one we really needed.
