Im very destructive. I spend alot of time fixing things or paying someone else to. I have a saying about myself, "i will find the weak spot". You and I better never work together then. If a tool or piece of equipment can survive what I do to it, it's a dang good un.

I also have a mechanic who works with me a couple days a week. The Lord has surely provided me exactly what i need yo make my life work.

I was a Naval Aviator in the USMC, and now I'm a 4th year dental student. Fixing things with my hands is therapeutic for me. Case in point: That looks like one of my projects.

I have learned what I can and can’t fix. Sometimes it’s cheaper to pay the man. He’s gonna end up doing it or more, fixing what I broke trying to originally fix the problem.

What's something you've fixed lately?
I put a new motor on my electric bike last week.

I was sewing up a pair of gloves tonight while watching football and my 12 year old son asked me what I was doing. I told him I was sewing up my gloves because they had ripped open. I've always been the type that is DIY, even when I don't want to, and he's learned how to change oil, spark plugs, painting, etc., but the topic turned to how our society has become a "disposable culture." I took this moment to drive home how we have to be able to fix things and showed him how to run a whip stitch. Proud dad moment.
What's something you've fixed lately? Fixing things ain't hard, but hats off to the taking the "training moment". That's usually the hard task for me when you want to get something done. It's taken me about 5 decades to slow down and use that time the right way.
