I always do a little too much it's a Dragon thing. I am a wood Dragon.
So there is this damn fat light bulb in a light hanging in my mud room. You have to walk through to get into the house. It's an old twisty turny lantern and it's always extremely difficult to get a bulb in, the whole light spins as you rotate the bulb-- so there I go trying to get the old bulb out when ZAP I blew something and flipping the breaker aint fixing it. No OUTSide lights! no light to get into the house and no light down by the bridge for people leaving! 88 year old grandparents on my wife's side coming: this guy has already fallen twice recently! Hospital everything. Forgetting stuff...and no light> it gets dark at like 4:00 Christ why did I change that bulb!
Now is the time for long extension cords and some sort of flood lights. It sounds like you have a lot going on so worry about the repair later. Watch for when they come so you can escort them. Lend out flashlights. The most important thing is letting them know that it will be dark and tell them to walk slow or usher them. Happy Thanksgiving to GBA Community!!
