After what was probably my last lunch date with T (until vacation?) I stopped by my parent's house to raid Dad's workshop for nails and screws. I got a mini lesson on how to install an anchor screw, which you use to hang heavy stuff. He filled my coat pocket with these:
and gave me the following advice:
D: Don't hit any electrical wiring.
A: How do I know where it is?
D: Oh, you'll know.
A: Because I will cut the electricity to the whole building?
D: Yes.
A: Umm...what are you doing tomorrow?
My handywoman skills about rival my car knowledge and my confidence to put 2 inch screws in the wall near a light switch without causing property damage is low. So even though I am almost a grownup, I will resign to asking for help.
Anchor Screws - 1
Amy - 0
I think your dad made you way more nervous than you need to be. I put holes in my walls all the time and I have not died once. Those anchor things worked good too - I used to use them. Now I just use nails!
