A Man Around the House?

I enjoy being a single gal. Honestly, I don't think I have the energy for the whole boyfriend, relationship work thing right now. But, I must admitt, there are times when a man around the house would come in handy. Yesterday, I spent 7 hours painting my bedroom. Yup, seven hours. Alone. Now, I could have asked some friends to help out, but I didn't. It got me thinking about how handy it would be to have someone living here who knew how to do things around the house. Like, construction things. Like fixing the hot water tap in my bathroom. Like having a second opinion when hanging pictures. Like helping move furniture. Yeah, maybe I should start dating again - a big guy with power tools who is trained in massage! A girl can dream....

You should hire a cute handyman a la Desperate Housewives.

Just throwing that out there.

Should I bring my own ball-peen hammer and massage oils or will you have them available when I arrive?

How much do you charge? I have some tools - I don't know what the hell a ball-peen hammer is, but I do have an abundance of massage oils!

Hahahahahahaha! True, so true! The tall thing would be good. I fell over painting because I had to climb up on my chair rail. Pretty funny. Maybe I should take a woodworking course...

Ooooh! A level! I am so jealous. I don't have a level. Come to think of it, I don't think I know how to use a level!
