Admittedly cars are an area I mostly don't want to delve into. I'll change my filters myself (something I did see my father doing) but I've changed oil enough to know it's worth it to me to pay someone else to do so. Specialization of labor and all that.

But yeah, I get a lot of pride and happiness when my daughter tells people that "Daddy can fix anything." Well, maybe not anything but I have fixed the shower and mended her clothes and replaced outlets and stuff like that.
