Frugal and Energy Efficient Living

That's where my dad comes in, lol. But when I was married I had to be handy because my ex refused to lift a finger to help me out with anything. So I learned pretty much all the 'guy' stuff - changing headlights and signal lights, changing wipers, taking care of the mower and mowing the lawn, fixing the dishwasher, working my FIL's old snowblower and, well, all the household stuff, like hanging the tv on the wall. Now that I'm on my own, the only thing I need help with is things that I'm not strong enough for (rare, I'm freakishly strong for a woman, and one of my teen daughters is too, and together we moved all our furniture, LOL) or things that logistically need 2 people, or if I need tools. I can make time when it comes to money, and I'm very patient, so I just require the info and tools. I rather enjoy doing it too - it's a bit meditative to take things apart and put them back together.
