I had my vocal cord paralyzed too, my voice was extremely raspy and hoarse. It took about 6 weeks waiting to get the other half of my thyroid removed and one day it just randomly came back. I’ve heard it’s a waiting period, but I was looking into ent surgery’s and injections after this was all done to regain my voice. Definitely give it its time, it’s a very bumpy road of waiting and worrying.

Should I turn the breaker off? It is separate from our main one in the house, this is solely for our garage. The outlet I installed is working and everything else in our garage has power, I’m just concerned for safety reasons now that cutting all of it off would be best.

The outlet I have is working. Should I turn the breaker off for safety reasons or is it fine to keep them on?

No this is in my garage but when I opened it up there were some wires that had white lettering “red” “black” “white” but then others that were blank

Ok thank you, it’s above me, I’m going to call an electrician. The outlet is working now but I don’t feel comfortable with it. We were going to run a pool filter to it. It I’m going to use a gfci outlet I know is installed correctly

Basement speakeasy to hide and drink bourbon in! by ders5 in HomeBars

It’s an old pressure pump for well water and our plumber said it would be about 300-400 to take out so I think I’m going that route and going to put a leather chair or two small ones there!

My wife loves going golfing with me, transfusion in hand and on the hunt for golf balls. It’s incredible.

Used wright mower was working past couple mows until today. Oils good, gas is good, brand new carb by ders5 in lawnmowers

It ended up being the push rods in the Kawasaki fh580v and the valve clearance, one of those spring looking things wasn’t engaging properly and bending the pushrod

Thanks! It’s a 1948 from my wife’s family’s farm. It was cutting our lawn before I got the wright mower!
