SIMPLE PLEASURES

Homeowners work is never done! When my old outside fixture finally gave out the other day, (and I'm not even remotely handy when it comes to electrical repairs) I had to stop and think about what I should do. I knew I could call an electrician ($$$$$$), but quickly decided that was not an option. My Son in laws are very willing to give a helping hand when they can, but, they live in other states and have their own families to care for.
I decided to go to our local Home Depot and get a replacement fixture. It was very inexpensive and should be very easy to hook up. Hehe, but NOT for me!
Over the years, I have collected a few cards from handy persons who have helped me from time to time. Not all of the cards I have collected are from people that I know and have used for work around my house, but I have them just in case! The card in the forefront is an example...I just picked up this card and have not used them for anything so I would have to ask for references. Anyway, my simple pleasure today is knowing that I can call someone I KNOW and TRUST, which, for me, is the most important aspect of hiring anyone.
