2020 didn’t start off so smoothly for me. My youngest stepped
on my iphone which resulted in me not having access to my phone for a while. Nothing
like experiencing what it is like to be without to realize how much I depend on
this little device. Sad to say, I truly felt lost and disoriented. When a trip
to the nearest Apple store that night could not fix the problem... (because it
turns out it is not just the screen that cracked but whatever it is underneath)… my very capable husband ordered a part from Amazon and decided to
attempt the fix himself. Glad to say it worked. This here was
his crazy work station!
So this post is dedicated as a “shout out” to my handyman
husband! It is his birthday today. All last week, he was on a business trip.
Whenever Joe is away (which unfortunately is a fair amount) …often the words out
of my mouth are “wait for daddy to fix it”!
Now whether it is replacing an entire kitchen faucet because
the old one was leaking and dripping… or helping our oldest fix her digital
radio clock because the time was wrong (…and I didn’t have the skill or patience to figure it out) …my husband gets to use his mechanical engineering
degree from MIT for these practical daily issues.
On top of it all... aside from "fixing things" around the house, Joe uses his tinkering skills to transform broken lightsaber toys into wall lamps. Can you tell that he is an avid Star Wars fan?
So happy 2020, everyone! Hope your year has started off better than mine.
