I am not very manually gifted but I have fixed 3 things in my life.
- about 20 years ago I fixed my landline, I opened it up and found some loose wire and tightened it and it started working again
- about 10 years ago I fixed my starter key to my Prius, (following a youtube tutorial)
- TODAY i fixed MY FRIDGE! this is the best feeling yet. My fridge stopped cooling a week ago and I thought its the end of it since its 10 years old or that I will have to call an expensive repairman, but then internet to the rescue, I once again found a youtube tutorial on how to find and replace a malfunctioning part thats causing my fridge motor to not work properly and I MANAGED to do it.
It was pretty exciting to say the least because the color of the wires inside my fridge were different than in the video, but I am proud to say i fixed it and only cost 3 USD for the spare part - starter relay.
It a small thing, but for someone like me its incredibly joyful feeling.
So… are you the fixer in your house? if so, what brought you the most joy that you ever fixed?
