Women - Don't be Intimidated!

More and more women are without a partner, in a home and at times, feeling overwhelmed by the things that can happen. Ever had a toilet keep running and feel it was above your skills to fix? Or maybe the heating bills have you wondering what you can do to save money and keep your house from feeling so drafty? Don't wait for some male figure in your life to step forward (or be drafted)! Grab this book and read and realize you CAN do this yourself! The sense of satisfaction you achieve will be worth the effort, I assure you and with Lynda Lyday's book, you'll be well-armed to tackle the job!

You can do it!

This book is more advanced than others such as "Dare to Repair". If you hate calling the super for every little problem, or can't afford to be hiring a fix-it guy all the time this is the book for you. Shows you how to do home improvement projects that even renters can do too.

Easy as 1 2 3 ...

this is the only manual you need to get started around the house. no need to wait for "your man" to get something fixed!! can't wait to get her tool line for women. what a great idea.
