Handy man

I always wondered why men could fix things and women couldn't. I mean I was pretty sure it wasn't part of their genetic makeup, because where would that come from? After millions of years repairing his spear, caveman is now genetically programmed to fix automobiles?

Nope, made no sense to me.

Then I figured it out.

You tube! And before that, How To Manuals.

Today I repaired the broken hatchback door on my car after watching a video about how to do it.

When I assemble furniture? I follow directions. Sometimes two or three times, but I just keep on until it looks like whatever it's supposed to be, a chair, a bookcase, a bed.

It's a little harder when it's the computer, because how do I look up something when the something I need to use to fix it is broken? Mostly I just plug and unplug and, mostly, it works.

Now all this being said. If you have a man handy (or any willing person) why not use him (or her?) It is much easier to watch somebody else work than to do it yourself.

At least most of the time.
