Husbands are Handy

[DDH]

I have a very handy man too. Don't think I could give him up, even when he makes me mad. He changes oil, washes cars, builds porches, fixes everything on my bike, works really hard and that's not to mention the other extracurricular activities You know like setting up the tents when we go camping. LOL

I will have to remember to come to this thread next time I am wanting to trade him in. LOL

That little gadget that he set up for you sounds way cool. Music is such a motivator for me.

My BF is so not handy. I'm not sure he can even work the can opener. Lucky for me, I like to laugh.

Thom just made an adapter that will run off a Dyno hub to power small external speakers for an MP3 player. Music while you ride, but still maintaining the ability to hear traffic, powered by the rider. Cool stuff!

I have a handy one...if I didn't we would be broke.
The latest incident is a good one and all my fault.
Changing the toilet paper roll as the toilet is flushing...Oops the springy roll thing goes in the toilet and its gone...

Crossing my fingers that it doesn't get stuck and its on its way to where ever that "stuff" goes. Well my well-wishing didn't work and after a week of a few backups he is pulling out the toilet. A big mess and some heavy duty tool use and what does he find...the wooden springy rod. It was lodged in the bendy part of the toilet. No more back-ups and crossing fingers. I am sure he saved us hundreds in plumbers fees.

Cooked him his fav meal last night, BBQ chicken and a veggie pesto pasta salad.

The radio thing sounds great and so inovative!

We did an organized ride last week and there was a guy playing light rock on his little portable speaker thing..."Lady in Red" is not a motivating song when climbing. I think he tried to keep up with us just because he knew he was annoying! UGH!
