I am no expert so I need to make sure my house isn't going to burn down.

My dryer is in the garage and if I put it where it was supposed to go my car would have to be be in the driveway. So to extend the reach of the 6 foot standard (10AWGx4) cord I bought two and joined them like this:

I cut the plug end off of one of the six foot cords and cut off the round connectors on the other. Stripped them both and connected them together using a heavy duty ("safe" w/ some goo inside) wire nut connector. I then wrapped each in heavy electrical tape and then wraped the bunch together using electrical tape.

Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.

We have dark gray tile (with some brown tones). The whole feel of the bathroom is dark, so we were looking for a semi-bright color. Nothing too "loud" though! Our look is very contemporary.

I don't knowif they have these programs everywhere but, here we have a Community development or something. they will come out to your house and fix up to $5000.00 of work if needed. They fix a/c's, appliences, and other major things. You are basically getting a loan that has 0% interest and has to be paid back in 15 years(in FL that is the deal) The County runs it and ours is through the Red Cross.
I just wanted to know if anyone knew what all they would fix? our central a/c is broken and they will be out to look at it but we also need carpet badly. We have had to tear up the carpet(almost 30 yo and torn everywhere) because we couldn't take it. Now we have partial concrete floors and a baby who will be crawling in weeks.
Anyone know what all is covered...............In FL
