I love handy men!! You know I’m spoiled. Nick takes care of so much of the household chores – inside and out. He does 90% of the cooking, laundry, groceries… you name it. But have I told you before just how handy he is??
The other day at school I realized, as I surveyed my incredible messy desk, that I needed a small desk podium. I have a large desk that's very wide but I don't use the space well. I have created my own notebook will all my lesson plans, all the worksheets I like to use, the keys – everything. I needed to have it out all the time but then I kept putting things on top of it and I couldn’t get back to it to put things up… it all just became a big mess. So I quickly sketched an idea of what I needed. Here’s what I drew…
I showed the sketch to my students and asked them if they thought my husband would make it for me. They laughed and said maybe by the time I retired!
But I took the picture to Nick Tuesday of last week and asked him if he thought he could make something like that for me. He looked it over and said “Hmmmm…” When I came in from school on Friday of last week this was waiting for me on the table.
I was really impressed!! So is he handy or what!? Thank you Nick! I love you!
Geeze, if he were only that fast when I tell him I really want a spanking!!
Your Nick is a man of many talents PK.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should draw a picture of a couple spanking and send it to him :)
Love.

PK, perhaps you could draw a self operated spanking machine, that should be hint enough.
ReplyDeleteOr do you think he might actually build one. WEG
Love and warm hugs,
Paul.
PK: Shouldn't a handyman be handy at spankings? LOL.

He's so clever! But then, you drew him a very clear picture of what you wanted.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

I have always wanted a handy man. I swore if I couldn't get a handy man I wanted a man who wouldn't hesitate to call in a professional if need be.
ReplyDeleteWell I got my wish. I got the ladder. Poor Will sometimes consults the professionals on tasks that even I can complete!
So I guess we will make a good pair. I'm just happy he does get things taken care of, one way or another.
And I'm glad you have Nick...and a new desk podium!
Love and Huggs!

Ronnie,
ReplyDeleteNow that's a picture I need to start working on!
Paul,
You know if we lived alone he just might try that.
FD,
You would think wouldn't you!
Hermione,
I think I need to draw some new house plans - quickly!
Theresa,
Yep the fact that they both get things done - that's the most important thing. We can count on them.
Ahh that was very sweet of him.
ReplyDelete:-)
What a nice thing he made for you. He is very handy! You will enjoy it so much.
ReplyDeleteNick sounds a lot like my husband. He's always fixing up something to make things easier for me. I ran a little mail order business that did repairs on dental instruments for someone and the office was very disorganized. My husband took leftover wood he had and built me a set of shelves that hung over my "shipping department". His degree is in education but through the years he has learned so many other things. Sounds so much like your Nick. These men are fantastic!
