I am a disaster at home improvements, paint flies everywhere, she'd never ask me to do tiling.

She used to make me do car repairs in the cold and rain, eventually I put the car together without the head gasket, gritted my teeth and turned the key. Cost me £600 for new valves but she never asked me to do car repairs again. Money well spent.
