I have a home built in the early 1960's, and the wiring is a bit confused, to say the least.  My main concern is in the bathroom, where we have a vanity light with 6 bulbs that is controlled by a switch, but unfortunately, a GFCI outlet is ALSO controlled by this switch.  I would like to be able to use this outlet WITHOUT the switch being on.  I am a rank amateur at electrical wiring.  Can you help?
