Before you do anything else, you need to turn of the circuit breaker. If you aren't sure which breaker turns off the light, turn off the main breaker and use natural light or a headlamp to complete this project. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws, or an impact driver with a hex-shaft to remove the nuts, that secure the canopy (the dome-shaped cover) to the ceiling. Then, use a screwdriver to remove the screws that secure the crossbar to the electrical box. Disconnect the wires on the fixture from the wires in the ceiling by removing the wire connectors and untwisting the wires. Carefully lower the old fixture to the floor. Follow the instructions that came with the new fixture. Generally, you'll need to line up the crossbar with the back of the canopy and thread the pipe or screws through the canopy. Only 14 to 12 inch (0.64 to 1.27cm) of the pipe should extend past the canopy, so adjust the screws or pipe until that much is showing. Tighten the nuts to hold the screws or pipe in place. Ask someone to hold the fixture while you do this. First, make sure all the wires are on 1 side of the crossbar. Then, use a screwdriver to screw the crossbar to the electrical box on the ceiling. It should go across the center of the hole and be screwed in on either side. You should connect the "hot" wire in the fixture to the "hot" wire in the ceiling, and the neutral wire in the fixture to the neutral wire in the ceiling. Generally, the hot wire is black or red and the neutral wire is white. Use wire connectors to connect the like wires to each other. Simply twist the exposed parts of the wires together, then screw the connector onto the wires. There is a ground screw on the crossbar that you installed, and it can usually be found just to 1 side of the center of the crossbar. Find the ground wire, which is usually green or copper. Wrap the ground wire clockwise around the ground screw to tighten it. Tuck all of the wires and wire connectors into the electrical box. Then, use a screwdriver or impact driver to secure the canopy to the ceiling. You can adjust the threaded rod or screws, if necessary, to make sure the canopy fits securely. If necessary, place light bulbs into the sockets of the fixture. Make sure they are rated for the type of fixture you purchased. Then, flip the circuit breaker to turn the power back on.

Summary: Turn off the circuit breaker that powers the light. Remove the old fixture, if applicable. Assemble the mounting strap for the new fixture. Attach the crossbar to the electrical box. Connect the like wires to each other. Wrap the ground wire clockwise around the ground screw. Install the canopy. Add the light bulbs and turn the power back on.

Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt to eight ounces of warm or lukewarm water and gargle after lifting your head back. To help cut the mucus even more, add the juice of 1/2 lemon to the salt water and gargle. If allergens are haunting your sinuses, the only home treatment you may need is a treatment of your home. Try the following suggestions to remove dust, pollen, and dander from your residence before they come back to bite you in the nose. Wash your clothes, sheets, pillowcases, and mattresses in hot water regularly. Hot water will kill any bacteria that may be causing your symptoms. Vacuum regularly with true or absolute HEPA filters. Vacuuming with HEPA filters ensures that any allergens are picked up during the vacuuming process. All 3 may make mucus production worse, so it is best to avoid these while you have a cold. Try out a DIY steam treatment by covering your head with a towel and placing it a safe distance from a pot of warm water. Make the steam treatment aromatic by adding tea (ginger, mint, or chamomile, for example) or essential oils (lavender, rosemary, etc.). Take a warm shower. Let the steam of the warm water work its way into your lungs and sinuses while you bathe. For this you'll need 3 cups of tea (1 huge cup) and hot water. Add sugar to taste and a little honey. Squeeze in the juice of 1/2 dark green lime. Drink this concoction first thing every morning without food. The lime will clean your liver and your stomach (full of last night's mucus due to the postnasal dripping) and you'll feel lots of energy throughout the day.

Summary: Make a salt water gargle. Do a round of house cleaning. Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods. Use steam treatments with herbs or oils. Try the lime cure.

If you're wearing pants or a skirt with a tight waistband, your clothes could be making matters worse by putting pressure on your bladder. Make yourself as comfortable as possible by loosening your tight clothing. If you're wearing a belt, unbuckle it. Unbutton or unzip your pants or skirt. To hide the fact that you're unbuttoned, pull your shirt down or place a sweater or another item over your lap. For similar reasons, you may also find it helpful to uncross your legs, particularly when sitting. Squirming around jostles your bladder and creates an urge that feels more extreme. You might want feel like tapping your feet or shifting from side to side, but that's just going to make matters worse. Try to get in a comfortable position and stay that way. This is one of the best ways to deal with having to pee on a bus. If there's really nowhere to go to the bathroom for the next hour or two, make the best of the situation by trying to forget about your uncomfortable physical state. Pick up your reading material or turn on a video absorbing enough to keep your mind off of your urge to relieve your bladder. Both of these actions can cause the pelvic floor muscles to give a little, making the urge to pee worse. You probably can't do much about it if you have a coughing fit, but you can make sure the book or video you choose isn't funny enough to make you laugh so hard you pee in your pants. Having an unbearable urge to pee is partly psychological, so thinking about whitewater rafting and spouting geysers really will make you feel worse! Let your mind dwell on deserts (without mirages) and other things that are dry. If you have a mean friend who thinks it's funny to sing "Don't Go Chasing Waterfalls" while you're trying to hold it in, tell him it won't be so funny if you pee in your seat right next to them. There's no chance that you're going to burst your bladder just by holding your pee for a long time, so let your mind be eased. If it gets to the point where your body can't hold it anymore, it will simply stop doing so. Hopefully by then you'll have gotten to a rest stop! If you fear the time has come and you're still sitting there wedged between a stranger and a window, read on.
Summary: Loosen tight clothing. Try not to move around too much. Read or watch something to distract yourself. Avoid coughing or laughing. Don't think about running water. Know that holding it for a long time won't hurt your bladder.
