Ha ha ha ha.
Being single,and a home owner, and a mom of a 'too' creatively minded son, I too do my own repairs etc.
My LHWS (local hardware store) man once told me that a plumbing job usually took 3 trips to the LHWS.
He was impressed when I got the repair done with 2 trips and a phone call!
My one concession is snow shoveling. I hire my "Bob the Builder" neighbour to do that with his big a** backhoe. !!
