(At least that's something I've learned by my recent narcissist studies.) Farmers had to be clever in fixing things.

Most of the time it is a good thing. I'd love to recover from the sensitive part though.Sharon Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01683868787160249441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6639676523379057364.post-77068097591308530132016-04-13T04:25:39.065-07:002016-04-13T04:25:39.065-07:00I suppose we can say you're supporting a part ...I suppose we can say you're supporting a part of our economy?Linda Hensleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11929626735450807904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6639676523379057364.post-23045325543172762872016-04-12T12:14:04.365-07:002016-04-12T12:14:04.365-07:00I'd rather pay somebody to fix stuff.I'd rather pay somebody to fix stuff.josh pincus is cryinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09302062659860682118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6639676523379057364.post-19481241726462245992016-04-12T11:25:06.506-07:002016-04-12T11:25:06.506-07:00I think I backed away gradually, then ran :) Good...I think I backed away gradually, then ran :) Good for you for being another "I'll fix it" girl!Linda Hensleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11929626735450807904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6639676523379057364.post-12919252084096528722016-04-12T09:29:32.916-07:002016-04-12T09:29:32.916-07:00Reading this made me go back to read a post that I...Reading this made me go back to read a post that I wrote 6 years ago titled "Call Somebody versus I'll Fix It." My husband is the former and I'm the latter.<br /><br />It's nice that your Dad lives on through you. Sounds like he was quite a character.

That's a great little proverb, and could be unpacked in so many ways, depending on what we feel we don't know.

What a great legacy your Dad gave you....the thirst for knowledge and the drive to work things out for yourself. He would be so proud.
