1 year agoGood for you for even trying!! I’m a middle-aged man and I am an avid handyman, even though I have an office job as a profession. Like you, it started because I didn’t want to pay someone else (I’m cheap that way). These days I am very adept at woodworking, carpentry, electrical, plumbing, felling trees, some car repair, and more. The way I look at it is “if THAT person can do it, so can I!”.
You didn’t fail today, simply for the reason that you attempted to do it. Don’t stop there! Your confidence and your finances will thank you down the road.
Treat yourself to Fontaines DC’s new album “Romance”!
