Short and sweet while I recover my sanity.
In just three short days, the word “Daddy. PLEASE do not electrocute my husband” came out of my mouth no less than 10 times. It was only when I gently pointed out that in the event of Patrick’s electrocution I would find my ass right back on his doorstep that he started paying a little attention to the damn electrical panel. Nothing like threatening a parent with the reacquisition of a child to keep them in line.

Oh my! I so recognize this – but since my dad is an electrician he would say “That’s just a little bitty shock. That won’t hurt him.”
I grew up in an “under construction” household. An open panel? No problem. Why do you need a light switch cover?
Oh, did I mention I had to deal with no running water or electricity as we were building a cottage? I was a teenaged girl, yep that made me so happy!
Pax,

Clarification: He won’t let DH do anything that involves actual danger. He tells him to hire someone.
My DH is not a handyman!
