My Very Own Handyman

I have to admit that when I married Graham, I wasn't choosing him for his handyman skills so now that we have a home, I am pleasantly surprised with this new side of him that I am seeing. He has been quite ambitious and much more capable than I realized. He has done several projects around the home that I would not have expected him to even consider doing himself. Most of these have been "improvement" projects for the home or yard, but last week we had our first significant "fix it" project. Our garbage disposal was leaking and we didn't know why. He diligently called his brother, did some research and took it apart, went to Lowe's (not that this was any hardship for him :)), found the part and reassembled it. I was very impressed with what he did... You can see some pictures from his work below.





And amazingly enough, here is the picture with him after he completed the job (only 3 short hours later - I thought it would certainly be at least a few days...)

Now - the disclaimer here is that I waited so long to get around to posting this that it is now leaking again... but I am completely confident in my husband and know that he will get it to stop leaking again soon :)
I'm so thankful for a hard-working, teachable, determined husband who is a great handyman!
