A determined soul will do more with a rusty monkey wrench than a loafer will accomplish with all the tools in a machine shop.
Robert Hughes
With a lot of determination and some help from my neighbors, along with some drilling, measuring, and a trip to Home Depot, I replaced Mag's swings, and added a new tire swing to her swing set. Then I successfully removed the torn and tattered safety net (which served no earthly purpose) from her trampoline. I am finding in my "singlehood" that I am capable of doing much more than I realized I could. Sometimes, I just don't feel like digging deeper to learn one more new thing, but once I have, I am deeply gratified and armed with new knowledge that I can carry with me to the next "next time."
