Drywall Patching

Got up a little early this morning and patched up the small drywall hole the plumbers had to cut above my shower to reattach the 90° pipe. Based on a suggestion by Ruben, one of the plumbers, I stuck a piece of 2"x6" into the wall through the hole and attached it to the existing drywall using drywall screws. Then used that to support the piece that was cut out and screwed that piece into the wood as well. Then used spackle to cover everything up. It's not perfect, and you can see the outline where the spackle caught, but if you painted it over, I'm sure it would disappear.
