Update
Well, we had a few things happen in the past few days.
3 nights ago, my night light went out while I was asleep. Something woke me up in the total darkness. Could have just been the bulbs time, but why did I not stay asleep untill morning?
My wifes bedroom is 12' x 20' and was made from 2 rooms. I knocked the wall down and put in a lintel beam to make the big room, so there is a 2 bulb fixture in one end and a cieling fan in the other end with 3 bulbs. 2 days ago I went into the room and flicked the switch and both bulbs in the one end had burned out at the same time. So I replaced them and it worked fine. Next day I switched on the lights and the lights in the fan failed to come on. I thought this was odd, that all three bulbs would go at the same time. I got a new bulb and put it in one of the sockets. No light. So I got a test light and checked the bulbs. The bulbs were fine and worked. But would not work in the fixture. I happen to have a spare cieling fan that a friend gave me last summer and so I resolved to replace the fan next day, yesterday. Yesterday, after my wife got up, she flicked the switch and the fan lights came on.
Never have I had to replace so many bulbs as I have had to in this house. Over the 4 years + that we lived here.
I think I shall replace the fan unit anyway just in case there is a loose wire, but still odd prociedings. There shouldn't be loose wires because I saldered all wire conections. I was taught that loose wires cause fires.
I don't like to sleep in the basement. It creeps me out. Resently I haven't been able to go to sleep untill the first light of day. There are no windows down there, but the daylight comes down the stairs from the back portch. Seems to be cold spots down there too.
Odd, but not ground shaking..................................yet!
