(As is a pile-sweeper-upper!) I was home alone when I did those boxes, and I can't even tell you how many times I had to go back down the ladder to get something! I seriously considered using it as my mile-a-day.

I smiled all the way through your post. My grandfather, father, and husband were/are all electricians, and you are so right that things are never as simple as they seem. I have spent many hours as an electician's assistant because it is easier to have "go-fer" than it is to scamper up and down when you DO forget something. Though I have wired switches and outlets, I am just as happy that my husband climbs the ladder. Now we know another of your many talents, and you have my complete respect for all of your super powers!Carole @ Fresh off the Framehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17022547397680969012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1137238438362331675.post-31769949383541853252016-07-26T15:57:59.846-05:002016-07-26T15:57:59.846-05:00You are woman of the year!!
