One thing I am going to learn how to do (with my copious spare time) is learn how to fix things around the house. My husband is a good man but his interests are more with the classes he teaches and I don't think he even notices when anything is in need of fixing.
So, today I decided to do something myself. I have a necklace rack and a shelf that have needed to be hung on a wall for about a month. Both required anchors for drilling into the drywall and I didn't want to do the projects wrong so I have waited...until today.
I got out the power drill and figured out how to change the drill bits (no easy matter!). I found the anchors, the level and screws. I read how to install the anchors. And within half an hour, both the necklace rack and the shelf were hanging on their walls, sturdy and not crooked.
Why did I wait so long?! This was fun and very satisfying! I am already scheming about my next project :)
Bravo!
ReplyDeleteKeep up this great work, handy woman!
Your husband and children will be filled with pride and contentment (and a kind of relief, I guess...)!
Cheers,
Jeanneke.
I wonder when my husband will notice :)
