And let there be light

You know those mysterious sounds you here

You don't know where it is coming from

BUT

You are curious and afraid all at the same time because it is not normal

WELL

Last weekend I heard this sort of loud humming sound with a few pops thrown in as I turned on the light over the kitchen island

I wondered what it was (not realizing that the light hadn't come on...duh)

(light bulb moment) the light!

Flicked it off

Sound stopped

Told Jay

He had to take it apart because that wooden grid was not something that just snapped into place.

I thought maybe it was just a burnt out fluorescent bulb

Jay didn't know if it was that or the housing unit holding the bulbs, so he took them down also

Fire anyone

Burnt wires all in a burnt balled mess

So

this is our "temporary" light or is it

Maybe this is a new trend

After all

we see lights like this for over $100 smackeroos and mine was free!

Our temporary fix just didn't go with the newly installed wonderful bargain light we scored at Lowes on clearance last month

so we "HAD" to go shopping...drat...oh hurt my feelings


We got

this bar (not those lights) so that Jay didn't have to mess around with adding 2 more electrical boxes (there wasn't even one box...only a hole with wires hanging out...)

And

three of these pendants.

I like industrial lighting

I love industrial lighting

BUT

I just didn't think it went with what we already had....call me crazy.

Now

I have to wait until he can put them up but in the mean time I will LOVE my

Industrial light (hey...it works)
