I’m pretty happy with how I’m adulting. I cook a bunch, I fix just about anything, I am a pretty solid home DIY person, good with plumbing, electrical, cromulent at basic carpentry and drywalling.
My money is OK, could be better, most of my relationships are healthy, I’m doing OK physically.
I read a lot of books, prioritized emotional health and growth, I like a lot of things, I’m pretty bad at the piano, but I try real hard.
I don’t know if I’m pro max but a lot of my friends ask for my advice.
Also, what is that strange curly cord in the picture.
Im like half of this. I’ll never compete with my father, though, lol. He just seems to know how to fix and do everything. The only thing I can do for him is computers, and I feel bad because it’s nowhere near what he can do and has done for me. Like how im basically broke and in debt and needed a car bad since my last one was 18 years old and he didnt want to keep fixing it or want to fix it because something bad was probably gonna happen soon. So he loans me the money and we buy my cousins car they were going to trade in… within the first month, the entire engine is shot. Dealership wants 9k, so he’s like, nah. Tow to his house, and he buys a new engine online for 3k and puts it in himself. Took him some time, but he just finished a few weeks ago and has been driving it for 500 miles to make sure it’s OK. I’m about to get it back this weekend.
My entire basement flooded a month ago from leaky water heater and then find out after everything was demolished and removed that there were also 5 different leaks in water pipes as well. He just came by and replaced all the plumbing with new pipes while it was exposed in 1 day.
The list goes on, but you get the point. I seriously have no clue what I would do without him, and I know he is getting older now so its kind of scary to think about. I got about 1 more year of debt, and I should be ok after that, thankfully. I’ll never forget everything he has done to help. It sucks that a lot of people never get to have something like that.
Well there is something you can do right now. If something else goes wrong, make him help you fix it.
I torture my sons by making them help me as I currently finish up a transmission on their car. One of them made a hole in the wall and I will show them how to make the patch, but they’re sanding it.
They have all been shown how to sweat copper, plunge a toilet and cable a drain.
It is odd that your dad knows how to do to do all this stuff, but doesn’t teach you. When I’m old and crusty, the last thing I want to do is fix everyone’s stuff. He’s just setting himself up for a lot of work in his golden years if he doesn’t.
The coiled form makes it somewhat retractable. If you have the phone earpiece on the phone itself, the coil makes for basically a 6 inch (15cm) curly cord, but you can still bring the phone up to maybe 6 times the length, nearly 1.1 yards (1m).
It’s common for signal cables that don’t carry much power.

That’s the phone cord.
Wow, thats wild, why would you charge a phone with a weird curly cable?

I kid, I am old enough to have grown up with those.
The curls make the electric go faster!
