I was feeling strong for a few days and yesterday I decided to tackle a job in the attic. It was a big window fan that hadnt worked in 2 years. My late husband, rest his soul, was the king of half **** home repairs.
the fan was hot wired right into a large electrical box and nailed to the window frame, not that I could un plug and replace it...no, that would be too easy. so tools in hand I managed to fix it, ten trips to the cellar, half a can of WD40. all the way through the job I was talking out loud, telling my husband to help me, you left me with this falling down house then help me not to get fried. stuff like that and some mild cursing.
My 5 yr old granddaughter Hannah was here. she came upstairs a few times. when I finished and came down she was very quiet, then she said
"Gram, you DO KNOW your husband is dead don't you? LOL
