I’ve decided that to keep my budget under $100, I’m going to use internet resources and not buy all the books I really want to buy. Like this one. and this one.
But I digress. The first website I checked our was Flylady, which I’d heard a lot of good things about and at first glance seems frightening comprehensive. Seriously, there is so much on this site that I’m not really sure where to start. I find a ‘Beginner’s Babysteps” section and note that they mention something about sending you 15-20 emails a day.

Guys like to fix things by hand. It’s just a part of their nature. If something breaks, like an arm on a chair (or an actual arm,) they just wanna pop that sucker right back in.

I GOT this.” They won’t ask someone else for directions, but they’ll attempt to re-wire an electrical circuit by themselves. Yea, that totally makes sense.
