Dh is excellant at repairing things but not when I want them done like yesterday so often I find myself repairing or fixing things. I really enjoy doing that even if it sometimes takes me much longer than if I had waited for dh to get it done.
How about you?

We both fix things, when it comes to a hammer or screwdriller, I will do it..... If it's putting in a new water heater, I could but leave it to him.........

Me too CJ, good thing I have 2 vacuums! I asked him 2 months ago to put a new belt on the one upstairs, he finally did it today! It is really hard to stretch the new belt to fit, it takes me hours usually, which in this case would have been faster! :D

Well, my DH doesn't read instructions so I do all the putting together and fixing things around here. Which is fine by me since I do it so well!

Usually my oldest and I will do things together. Of course if dh sees us he HAS to step in and fix our mistakes or point them all out to us...

I tell him about it... and if he doesn't fix it I end up doing it myself. I can do most things... maybe not the way they should be done, but I get it done somehow!

Dh is the fixer at my house. I have no patience for fixing things and if I was in charge of home repairs our house would be a disaster area.

I repair most of the things around my house. Dh works out of town so it is up to me...

I am usually the fixer in our home because DH is so busy with work and all...

I do some fix it work but if I feel I can't do it or I'll make it worse I leave it to hubby to take care of.

Dh repairs almost everything. He loves to see how things work and fix things that most people would throw away. I do fix some things though.;)
