Reason # 495 to dislike old houses

Okay, don't get me wrong.  I actually like my home.  But being paranoid, the old house with old wiring, plumbing, walls, insulation...(I could go on and on) scares me at times.  It's got character, though.  So, we finally got a new door.  About time.  Seriously, really needed a new door.  I get this phone call at work, yes we have people in our house while we are at work.  Have I ever told you how much I LOVE my small town?  So our guy, Scott, calls to tell me the bad news.  While removing the old door he cut through some wires.  Thank God, he wasn't electrocuted.  But he did have to call an electrician.  Bill goes up...  Turns out the room was wired incorrectly and the electrician needs to cut into the wall to figure out what is wrong.  Bill goes up...  Needless to say, I love my new door.  It totally changes the front of the house.  To quote Ben "It make the front of the house not look trashy."  But it is not finished.  Basically our front room is about to be pulled apart and will be pulled apart for a while.  Who puts wires in a door jam!?  I mean really!
