NWR- but spinoff of flat tire

I think its super important for women to be empowered. I learned some o' this stuff early to make sure I dont get taken advantage of. I think we al learned today how SO important it is to be able to change your own tires!!! (mikes bride I'm so sorry you had to go through that today, it
s ucks!!!)

Points to think about:

Can you change a tire?

Check your oil?

Change wiper blades?

Use tools around the house?

Use power tools?

Whiste dixie?

I am great at home improvements, but know nothing about cars! I always tell FH that is his job.

I can do all of that and more. And I've never owned a car.

I'm just interested in how things work. And I worked building sets and running sound cables and lighting in various productions, so I know my way around tools and electrical issues and such.
I've lived alone for a long time...have a toolbox that rivals most people I know.

I don't like the whole 'women should be empowered' kinda thing. Empowered because we know how to do these things? I just call it 'taking care of myself'.

Maybe that sounded b!tchy. It wasn't meant to be. Oh well.

Not bitchy at all! Iove the way things work too!!! Call me Grace the tool girl taylor!

i have boobies and am willing to service FH.

i dont need to know how to change a tire.

Can you change a tire?

I think if I had to, I could. I also always had triple a, or a service with my insurance that I could call them ANYTIME and they would be there right away.

Check your oil?
Again, if I really wanted to learn, I think I could...but I just always go when I'm supposed to.

Change wiper blades?
NOPE!

Use tools around the house?
Yes, basic stuff. I put together Dino's desk and that took HOURS! I did good!

Use power tools?
I think so hahah

Whiste dixie?
Nope. what is this? hahah

I can use tools around the house and definitely can use power tools-love when I get to use those

Car stuff-not soo good with, I can put a good show acting like it though

hmm never changed a tire but if i had to im sure i could.

im very handy. at work they always call on me to the fixing and climbing and all that stuff.

my favorite thing to do is chop wood (and it gives me nice muscles)

LOL!!! ITA...

besides growing up with my father its impossible to not learn how to be handy....

I can do everything except change a tire, DH tired showing me once, but i don't think i'm strong enough, lol.

This might sound a little 1950's, but DH and I have certain 'man' and 'woman' jobs as we like to call them. Like I don't take out the garbage or mow the lawn, those fall under his category. But I do all the cleaning, cooking, laundry, etc. One time he asked me to clean up the dog poop and I laughed and said 'o no thats one of the man jobs'
