Handy Women


Linda just noticed that the earthquake Tuesday caused a little damage to our walls.  She is not sure what she should do first. Do you call the insurance company or get a contractor to come and give an estimate to fix the walls?  I guess if there are cracks in the kitchen, there might be cracks elsewhere too.  I hope our ceilings stay up, especially because we have company today.  Noah is asleep in the bedroom.  Linda wants to take a picture of him because he looks so adorable, but she does not want to chance waking him up.  She was able to buy the stroller she wanted at Target this morning.  The box had two little rips and a hole in it, so she asked the manager guy if he could discount it.   He gave her an extra 10% off!!  It's a good thing she has tools now.  You have to put the wheels on the axles and then attach that to the stroller body.  There are also some other screws that need to be attached to hold the tray and handle on.  Having tools is kind of nice, but now she has to learn to do things herself instead of calling on good friends for help.  Since she put the Eureka! together by herself, the stroller shouldn't be too much harder.  Maybe she could even fix the walls and repaint the kitchen too!! (Now that's just crazy talk.)
