The handyman can

I suck at around-the-house stuff, and now that I no longer have VH, some things don't get done unless I hire someone to do them. Today the handyman came and did all sorts of useful stuff, from getting the garage door opener and a toilet to work again, to putting up new curtains in the library (the old ones were there when we moved in, and I've hated them for two years, but never got around to taking them down because they had wooden valances that had to be removed from the wall). He also put together two new kitchen chairs, turned on my gas fireplace, and hung up some pictures. My long list of chores has been done, and I'm a happy girl.
