Useless

I wish my husband was a handyman. I wish I was too. If we were, we could save a lot of money doing repairs around the house. Neither of us know how to do minor fixes. Can't count the many times we summoned a repair guy, only to find out we could have done the work ourselves. We have many tools, but we don't always know how to use them.
We even have micrometers handed down from my husband's uncle who was an engineer. Needless to say, they're collecting dust in the attic. I wonder if we should enroll in a trade school? Not a bad idea.
