Comments on: Mrs DIY http://mumsgather.com/2008/11/28/mrs-diy/ My very own mini, personalised, parenting resource. A cyber filing cabinet of parenting articles and links. I love sharing my children's favourite sites, online games, crafts and exchanging childcare stories and parenting issues faced with other parents.

Especially if staying overseas when all those labor charges can kill! So it is always good to know a little on how to fix stuff... :P <strong>It IS true that it saves a lot of time and money as well as frustration at times. ;)</strong> My hubby also likes to DIY coz he said can save lots of time and money!

Ahhh....the wonder when we get the right buttons pushed no? And doesn't it make you feel so glad and secure that when the pipe bursts, you don't have to look far! <strong>You are right on both counts. :)</strong> Reckon the best thing you have done for him is to put the language of love to practise.

But I really salute you MG, you have done alot of DIY job that I dont think I can perform or my husband would allowed me to perform, for eg, climbing up the roof :-) The most I can do is, climb on the ladder to fix the light. <strong>Well, I didn't actually get right up to the roof. I just stood shakily on the looooong ladder passing up things. Hahaha.</strong> My husband tried to be a DIY man but most the time he fails…hehe.

How bad i am! Gosh, i should set u as an example to be a good wife! <strong>Thats because he waits for me at the ladies dept even tho he's bored to tears mah. Hahaha. But I don't always do this. Sometimes, I "escape" to the household section of the hardware store with the kids or I say "Let me watch the kids while you browse." then I go and sit down somewhere with the kids and me, all looking bored.
