Setting Up The Household

Am attempting to add a woman's touch to our home here in Tamale but I must admit that credit for all the basic and important groundwork goes to Jim. Having borrowed an electric drill for the day, he was a man with a mission going from room to room making holes for curtain rod brackets at each window plus extras for pictures and mirrors. In addition to his job at the hospital, he is plumber/electrician/carpenter - a veritable jack-of-all-trades - as he deals with poly tanks, gutters, drain pipes, electrical power and closet shelves. I'm having enough trouble trying to figure out how many yards of fabric I need in order to have curtains made.

Can't believe that he is carpenter, plumber, electrician! I"ve done more of that than he has. Necessity is truly the mother of invention.
