DIY home improvements

i'm elated. i'm accomplished. i can do ANYTHING. never have called my father faster than i have this afternoon after replacing the screen in my apartment window. i'm super allergic to mosquitos (like, super allergic) so when my kitchen screen tore i was devastated. no more cool fall breezes in the apartment, lest i run the risk of letting those bloodsuckers into my space – until now.

after tons of research on reddit, i purchased this kit on amazon. i am by no means a diy diva, but this seemed simple enough – and seriously, it was. i had to stand out on my fire escape, a little worried i'd fall, but i DID IT! i haven't felt this accomplished in so long! moral of the story: if it's a relatively minor thing, try to fix it yourself! you'll feel AMAZING!
