We remodeled our house a bit last month. We did some small things, and the biggest thing we did was paint. When I painted all my doors in the house I took all the door knobs off instead of trying to paint around the door locks, and knobs. At first I thought this was a better way of working, and that it would be no big deal to put them back on. I mean how hard could it be to put two screws back in to the door knobs. Well what I failed to realize was that if you don’t line everything up just right that they don’t work correct. I didn’t want to tell hubby what I did because he told me not to take the locks off because I won’t know how to put them back on. I wish I did listen to him because it would have made my life a little easier. I tried to put them back on correct for one hour before I said forget this, and waited for hubby to get home. Hubby said that it would have been a little easier if I didn’t put all the parts for 4 different locks in one spot. Maybe I need to listen to him more often. He told me I should have just taped them off, or just cut in around them. I didn’t understand the cut in part, but he said that he knows how to do it because he does it everyday at his part time job.

Some times when we, or me rather do the things I’m told not to it does work out ok. Some times its a disaster. I’m usually doing what ever myself. I love DIY,(Do It Yourself), and get myself into all kinds of trouble.
