Men and Fixing things

Filed under - Rule of Thumbs...
Why do all men begin a task with the optimism of a toddler?
"It's just going to take a few minutes, honey"
PFFT - yeah right
We heard that before!
Whatever project it is, it will always require a new tool to fit the task.
Some other thing will break in the process.
Someone will inevitably track mud grease, epoxy, glue, caulk etc. through clean parts of the house. You won't find all the spots for weeks.
Either too many or too few parts.
And in the end we just smile and settle for "at least it's working now." and cross our fingers behind our backs and just be glad they saved us the expense of a repair call.
le sigh
