| Introduction | I am interested in the techniques used to fix run down houses so that they can become homes. I grew up in an old house that always needed some room repaired or remodeled. By the time I was an adult, most of the house was remodeled, but it really has never been finished. If I had the resources, I would finish fixing it up like it is done on the home improvement shows on TV. For most of my life, I have lived with other people at their homes, so when I bought the home I live in now, the first things I bought for it were tools. And for the past 10 years I have proved that I am quite the handywoman. I have fixed everything from changing light fixtures to repairing plumbing. I take such pride in my ability to make repairs all by myself and I enjoy getting the approving comments from people who see my handiwork. |
