davidd's A DOLL A DAY 2023

[davidd]

...so how many did you get...?

Since I did a lot of the work including cutting all the steps and risers myself, driving screws, and banging apart the old porch, I'd like to know who I send MY bill to.  Given what Handyman Guy charges per hour, I can see I'm definitely in the wrong business!!! 

I got... none. Budget constraints remain in force.

Wait... you basically built the steps yourself? Building steps is really challenging! Like, really hard! If you can build steps, you can build pretty much anything! You shoulda done the entire deck yourself.

Are you thinking about doing the remaining section yourself, if and when you get around to it?

That's why the Smart Girls and I do most of the work around here ourselves. The times we've hired people, we learned that "hired people" charge a lot and a lot of what they do isn't all that complicated, and sometimes they even do things not-so-right. When it comes to building things, there's very little that a book or two, some YouTube videos, and some "figgerin'" can't figure out, especially if you are rebuilding something that you have to take apart first, so you can see how it's put together.
