Home Improvement….I’ll say it again…. Home Improvement. Its a word I say quietly to myself in the hope that my wife doesn’t hear me! I will gladly admit that I know nothing about the subject although I can recall watching the show, Home Improvement back when I didn’t have a wife I needed to speak quietly around. I was never any good at woodwork at school if that helps. Or metalwork or anything else that involved making or fixing stuff. I was awful at Airfix models as a kid. I always forgot the little guy that was supposed to go in the cockpit. I had an Army of pedestrian airmen by the time I was ten. When I got my first house, why oh why I bought a fixer upper I will never know. Thankfully, it was in the middle of a property boom and people would buy anything. After 12 months of my fixing up…well lets no go into that just in case the guy who bought the house ever comes across this article. Lets just say that the lighting was right the day it was shown. You can’t always depend on that light, so its a good job that I married a girl with a hankering for a tool belt. At least now I know that I dont have to try. I stick to the hammocks in the garden and she takes care of the fences and gates. If I as much as attempt to alter the thermostat on the heaters i am likely to end up in the basement with the termites.
But thats fine by me. I do the cooking and she does the Home Improvement. When it comes to relaxing pursuits I would much prefer preparing lunch in the outdoor kitchen leaving her to the job of maintaining the septic tanks. In my search on the web, I did come across a good site for Home Improvement resources. I say its good because the wife told me so. She often uses it for reference be it for outdoor work…she built the outdoor kitchen by the way…gates, fences…you know the sort of thing. It has tips on everything from leaking basements to fish tanks…no connection there.
So whether its termites eating your septic tank or the lighting atop your wall heaters….try myhomeresourcecenter.com . It makes a novice   like me….ever glad I married a chippy!
