Teaching teenage sons how to put ceiling fans together and hang them
HANDI-COACH In many homes I’m greeted warmly, and presented with a list of simple projects that have just become too aggravating to endure any longer. Often as I tick through the list, they’ll say something like, “You make it look so easy, I probably could learn to do that myself …” Absolutely right! AND – since I love teaching as much as I love doing, I’ve landed on the idea of Handi-Coach to help you achieve an even higher level of satisfaction when you can say, “Look what I DID MYSELF!”
Even got Mom in on the action (and fun!)
Yesterday Nick was about to head off to college, but learned in a few hours how to change all the bathroom faucets in their house – six of them (did the last one himself!) Today two sons helped put together three new ceiling fans! Most of the kinds of things I do could easily be taught in about the same time I’d do it myself, BUT with the added benefit to YOU of confidence and that incredible sense of accomplishment.
