re: Admit Your Dumbest Homeowner Repair Mistakes

Moved our electric gas top range out in order to spray for bugs behind it. All was good as I was pushing it back in, but some how the glass top cracked. The top over hung the counter top and I guess it put to much stress on the glass. 900 dollars later and a pulled back muscle we now have a new range.
Also electrocuted myself changing at the fan in my sons room. Turned off the light switches and verified no power to the fixture. Son came into his room and flipped the switch on when I went to the garage to get my wire strippers. Went to put the wire nut on the hot wire and shocked myself. Note to self turn off the breaker when other people are in the house and doing electric work.

LOTO at work, but At least flip the breaker when at home.
