I'm A Girl...So What?

I can use power tools, I'm not shy.  I installed a laminate floor in my kitchen in, oh, about four hours.  No big deal.  So what I'm a girl, that won't stop me.

I've always taken the initiative, partly because my dad didn't have sons, partly because my ex needed a helper when we renovated.  I learned allot from both of them and what they didn't teach me I figured out on my own.  I can even change a light switch or outlet.  Plumbing?  No problem, I can do it.

Ya, I'm missing the male equipment that would have me fit the profile but big deal, all that extra stuff down there would only get in the way anyway.  I like that I can use a chop saw, I like that I know the difference between a skill saw and table saw, even though both can be manufactured by "Skil".  I like that an orbital sander doesn't make me run to the nearest male for help.  Pshaw, I can do it myself. 

Anyone in need of a handy-woman?  I bet I can fix it for ya...

That's, how I see it.
Tammy.
