I am not handy either. On the bright side I have gained a few mechanical abilities at the car wash. They have not been transferred to the house...at least not yet anyway.

Re:
that is a lot of work for one lady to do especially fighting your headaches, I just dont have the strength of talent and if I didnt pay someone I would never get anything done. There is no one that would be around that I could ask to help me, my daughter has a friend who puts a few things together for us

I don't know about talent but there are many things I can do around my place myself! I go at the project for as much as I can do alone and then I gather people to help finish! I had a good summer, I put in more than 150 feet of flower beds, sodded my back lawn, built a 1' by 6' planter box, painted it, built a small deck, 12' b 12' painted it, put up my bike warehouse, my brother and I had previously built the floor, and I managed to get in a stream made from flat rocks to take car of an eyesore! I would faint if I had to pay anyone to help with all this work, I just couldn't do it! My motto is if I can read and understand, I can build it! lol Sorry for the rambling but my friends do call me 'Shelly of all trades' sam

Elinjos is a very good idea. And you have other talents than changing a door knob. I can't cook and don't want to and I hate all household chores, but I muddle through with minor repairs. You know how to change a light bulb, don't you? Just stick it in, hold on to it and then run in circles until it doesn't fall out anymore.

How talented am I?
As far as 'do-it-yourself' is concerned I've got two left hands. We've all got talents though Lustorlove. Perhaps it's a question of pooling the talents we've got with the people around us.
