improvements

we went to the DI the other day. we didn't find a whole lot, but we saw a ceiling fan. they only wanted $5 for it. shaun talked to a worker and mentioned that he wondered if it worked. the worker pulled out an extension cord, and stuck the wires into the plug end to see. the lights turned on, and then they pulled the cord to see if the fan functioned. it worked! and it was only $5, so we got it!

we got it home and got it cleaned up inside and out. then we discovered that the pull cord for the lights was missing. when shaun opened it back up, he found that the entire pull cord device was broken. he went to go do something, and stopped in at a hardware store. he found the part for $5.

after dinner, he put it up. for $10 and a few hours time, we have a working ceiling fan in the dining room!
