My father-in-law came by over the weekend to help me build a fence in our backyard.
I got a quote to have it done for $7500.
Doing it ourselves is less than $2000.
I'm no handyman, but after this project I feel like I can do anything.
Learning how to use all the tools necessary has been invaluable.
I'm a software engineer, but each day I find myself wanting to leave it and do something that keeps me healthy and active.
I'm grateful for my father-in-law taking the time to guide me through it. The lessons are numerous.
The fence is almost done and I look forward to trying my hand at more jobs before calling a contractor.
It's kinda funny how proud I am of this fence lol. Proof of work will do that I guess.
