I went up into the attic and connected the interrupted power to the outlets on the west wall. It took a while, and sweat was running off my forehead, but I got it. One of the bulbs on my worklight burned out. Fortunately there was light coming in the access hole nearby, and there are two lights on it.
I was really wiped out after that. I was still sweating after a lukewarm shower. Cindy ran to the store to get me some Gatorade. I think that really helped. I was feeling almost back to normal after a couple of hours, so I went back up. I wasn't much fun putting on the now-cold, soaking wet clothes from earlier, but I don't have three sets of shorts and T-shirts for each day.
Once the power was back on for the refrigerator, I turned it off for the kitchen light. There's an outlet on that circuit that I had to remove so I could put its conduit through a hole, and mount the outlet in the wall before I drywall it. That circuit also controls the family room, so hopefully I can get that outlet mounted and turn the power back on soon.
Then I'll do drywall. Tomorrow morning before it gets too hot, I'll go back up in the attic and tackle another circuit.
