Handy Woman

Our faucet was leaking, and my mother decided that I should finally learn how to fix the faucet. 

Thinking that I was a handy woman of some sort, I decided to take the challenge. I bought a replacement for a broke piece, and came home with the intentions of fixing the sink.

The thing is... I know very little about how one would fix a leaky faucet. I assumed that you just screw the pieces together and call it day. I thought it would be simple, and that any normal person would be able to do.

Apparently, that person would not be me.

By the time I was finished, I had stopped the leak from coming out of the faucet. I was proud. I thought I had done a great job. 

Little did I know the leak started to come out from below. I also didn't know that there was a puddle forming under the sink. 

An hour later, I realized that I needed help from my dad, and that I was no handy woman. Can't say I didn't try though.

I guess I should learn how to actually do something before I attempt it. Who knew?
