to this. 
And it only took me four hours (today). We must have worked on the fan on Thursday for also about four hours. The instructions said that it might take beginners between 4 - 5 hours. That must be if the beginners only have to do everything once. I think Melanie jinxed me because she cheerfully said, "Well, you know, three times the charm!"And sure enough, I had to start from the beginning again today. I put the brace to high in the ceiling, so I had to take the electrical box out again, and lower the brace. Then between dropping screws and not being able to find them, not having the right tools, realizing that the nut driver is shallow, and so if you need to put a nut over a long screw - your screwed, and calling my dad about seven times, I managed to get the fan up and running. Yahoo!
And just in case anyone doubts my handiwork… here is a picture of the fan running! Look, the lights work and everything!

Seriously, you should be using this as an excuse to find a man. Look at that place it needs a handy man. OK, just kidding, but you are embarrassing me over here, look at all that impressive work you are doing. I can only plug things in and maybe nail a nail in the wall and 1 in 4 hit the stud.
It is so funny that you put the picture of the fan running. I thought while reading, "Nice! But does it run?"
It looks great. You are awesome!
oh my goodness! we saw some cool fans online, but none of them matched your blue glass bottle collection!
