The Handy Man Can

Last Night:

Ross: I love having a handyman

Annie: yeah, I've noticed

Ross: Now all we need is a butler and a housekeeper

Annie: Don't forget a nanny!

We've had a long list of home improvement projects for the last year. A really long list. Stuff that we keep ignoring (chunks taken out of the dry wall by the boys, cracked ceiling from Christmas flooding), stuff that we just don't want to do on our own (Tile the bathroom), and stuff that is really annoying to Ross (squeaky spot at the top of the stairs).

About a month ago we hired a guy who lives in the neighborhood that adjoins ours. We drive by his truck all the time and finally decided to give him a call.

He's awesome. He's fast. He's thorough.

He's worth the money - not that it's been too much.

Knowing that all the stuff on our list - and the things that we added in the last few days, mostly because Wyatt keeps breaking stuff, is getting finished is just a great feeling.

Now, if I can only get started on that nanny.......
