Tweezers = Screw Drivers

Okay...moving is seriously a job in itself.

I am almost at the point where I am comfortible in this new place of mine but there are just little things for me to work on... basically all the guy projects! lol wink wink However being the independent woman that I am, I tried doing a couple of these projects before calling it quits and calling in the guys! I want you to know, I got my shoe shelves all up. Got the shelves up in the laundry room and finally.. the ONE project that had me at my last nerve! The stupid towel holder in the upstairs bathroom. ARGH!!!

To me... it shouldn't take a rocket scientist to put up a towel holder. At least that is what I think, but I was nicely informed on my tenth try, four stab wounds from my tweezers and a couple words that I should never repeat again! I was nicely informed... that YES... Towel Holders need more than just a womanly touch!

Anyways... I decide it was time to call on my amazing neighbors for assistance. He was more than happy to help.... WELL.... up until I handed him my eye tweezers as the screw driver for him to use. Bob's look was priceless and I really wish I could of captured it.
Anyways... after he got a couple, "You have got to be joking comments out of his system," he retreated back to his house for a real screwdriver. When he got back, he started to ask me if I had tools and I told him, "Yes!" Now they might not be sold in a hardward store but they work. Then I realized, Men and Women are different in what we call tools. Guy tools have to have some sort of name like: Craftman, Snap-on, MAC or whatever other manly tool name. In a woman's mind, everything can be used. My tweezers worked for getting in some other projects. A butterknife makes an amazing flat head screwdriver and lets not forget the rocks outside, being used as hammers! I might be a girl but honestly, I realized that women are part engineers... Bob on the other hand... He just thinks I am crazy and expressed his concern for my choice of tools.

It was a funny moment and one that I am sure Bob will share with other people, when they ask, "So your new neighbor... is she cool?"
