Mr. Fix It

March 1, 2017

As soon as Scott left, pretty much everything broke.  That shouldn’t come as a surprise, right?!  It gives me something to talk about.  #TurningLemonsIntoLemonade I’m not a handy person.  That’s ok.  I do my best when it’s necessary and I’m a creative user of duct tape.  Thankfully, I come from a family of handy people….
