Helpful Mommy and Daddy

My mom and dad are both very good at DIY things. At one of the house parties last summer I broke my bed. Thankfully, mom and dad were able to come over and mend it, they arrived within 30 mins of me asking, tool kit in hand.


I hope to get to be as 'handyman-like' as I get older.

    Awe. What great parents! My parents are definately not handy. Luckily, my husband and I were both in finish carpentry so we are both able to fix things when they break. Hoorah. =]

    Haha, whatever. They just came for the booze... as half a liquor store is conveniently located right behind your mother ;)

    That is so sweet :)

    I'm more of a hands on lean as I go kinda person. My dad is pretty handy and my mom isn't though, she's fairly artistic while my dad is not. So I guess I got best of both worlds!

    I plan on building a bed this summer.. from scratch. I'm hoping it will be sturdy enough to withstand any sort of shenanigans!

    I miss living close to my parents. My dad used to help me fix everything. Now I have to just figure it out. That never goes well.

    Ha! My parents are definitely awesome, but this one time when I was like 10 and reading Little House on the Prairie, I asked my dad if he could dig a well like the dad did in that book. He just eyed me for a couple seconds then went back to what he was doing. Which is about the sum total of his handiness.

    Ah you're lucky. If I broke a bed I would be surrounded by people just as clueless as me.

    I's got handy people in my family! Which is a good freakin' thing because I'm absolutely clueless. :(

    wow productive I most say! :D
    parents are the best. my dad is such a handyman too... I hope I'll be able just to do a little of the things he does cause I'm not handy at all! But it's so practical so i need to be become better at some point. if i fail.. I'll pray taht you'll do better than me! on the other hand.. if you are immortal you might have enough time to learn to be handy XD
