Hello everyone, joined steemit 8/4/2017 wasn't sure what exactly to say but figured since I've purchased steemit for the long haul I'd get to know the community. I'm a father of three two boys and a new born little girl this past Friday. My wife is the best :) she has been with me 11 years. I'm a mechanic by trade, but I enjoy being a handy man. I've remodeled my home in several ways in the last month before the baby was born so I could relax with her and help mommy. I replaced the floor, vanity and sink and some plumbing in the half bath due to some misfortune, a leaky sink. I replaced quite a bit of the roof, (shingles) because we were having issues with a leak. Gutted and replaced the base of a window since their was some water damage on the actual supports and so forth theirs been a lot of issues since we bought our home.
Although we are tight on funds, I found solace in the fact that we saved money on labor.
Has anyone had this type of life? where you could not afford to get help so you
had to do it all alone?
I'll be looking forward to reading everyone's introduction, thanks for reading mine.

Welcome Wylink. I replaced a couple of roofs in my younger years...same situation...did it myself to save money. No way I could get on a roof and shingle these days. That was tough enough when I was younger.
It definitely was a task and thank you for your experience with it, I'll follow you you seem like a down to earth guy.
Welcome Wylink and great post! Sounds like you have an amazing family - Super mom and dad. I only have one boy and feel overwhelmed some days. Will follow you and look forward to reading more of your posts.
Thanks it can be challenging some days, Even when I had one child I was over whelmed it's amazing what we can get used to as mothers and fathers.
I feel the same way. You think you will never be able to do this or that and then you do it because you HAVE to and before you know it, it comes naturally. Still 3 children sounds scary for me haha....still recovering from the first one :)
It sure can be... lack of sleep is pretty bad with a newborn
Looking forward to your future posts! Upvoted and followed!
Following you and thanks for the comment :D
