Until now, when I have to do them all myself:
- Wakes up in the middle of the night to yank batteries out of beeping smoke detector (why do batteries all stop working in the middle of the night? why?)
- Replaces smoke detector batteries so infernal contraption will stop beeping in the middle of the night, and so family doesn't die in fiery inferno
- Removes insanely tight screws to battery casing in son's favorite toy, so batteries can be replaced
- Opens jars (why do lids need to be that tight? why?)
- Deals firmly with condescending automobile mechanics
- Keeps vehicles filled up with gas (if truck didn't ping annoyingly when it gets low on fuel, I would end up stranded on side of road and probably eaten by wild bears)
- Buys new tires for vehicles instead of driving until tread falls off
- Turns son's Transformer action figure from a car into a robot and back again! Without reading any directions, and without cursing!
- Finds his way to any place in the state without maps or GPS or directions of any kind. Probably mutant ability. Scientists should study him.
- Drives large pickup truck without hitting curbs, small animals or other vehicles

Charles is pretty much one-of-a-kind!
Jeff actually told me to go to a gas station and put air in a tire. Gasp! Can you imagine. I promptly told him I'm a girl, and rely on him to take care of such things!
I know!!! How do you even put air in a tire? How do you know how much to put in? What if you make your tire explode? These are reasonable questions, I think.
Oh...you guys are spoiled!!! :) I guess it should have been a sign to me when the hubby would say, "well, get on it" when I'd say something needed to be fixed. Now I have to do it ALL!!! So, Amy...I feel your pain!
