    Smile dh is a "keeper"

    DH came home last night and did lots of "honey-do" 's. He repaierd the sag in our couch. now we sit in it and don't sink! Woo hoo!. Then he installed track lights in my kitchen...not i can see what I am working on in different areas of the kitchen. And he installed a celing fan/light in our bedroom. We had a regular celing light in there, but it was dreadfully hot in there all the time, the celing fan sure makes a difference. I am so happy, I think we'll keep him, lol

    Wow. That's great! A lot in one night.
    Can't say I'd let Gabe work on anything electrical.
    Enjoy the changes.
