kitchen elec nearly complete

a few evenings ago i was working on the electrical up in the attic and i was trying to figure out how to connect all the wires (i'm not an electrician). even though i'm not an electrician, i think i can tell that color coding standards were not followed when the house was originally wired; it seems like the dude just used whatever wire he had on hand. i've been tracing wires and peering into junction boxes to try to figure it out. my new wires are color coded and i'm trying to do my part correctly. anyway, i was looking at my new wires and noticed that some wires were marked with small red dots. it didn't make sense, white, green and black were all marked red. even my connectors and metal cable were marked....oh, i've cut my hand again. i hate working with this armored cable; it's like wrestling a razor blade slinky.
