I'm not quite a handy man but I can do it because I have to do it being the only man in the house. Chern Han is still a boy. I finally fixed the leaking tap in my kitchen sink after 2 months of battle to savage the old one. Anyway I bought a $22 tap and had the old one replaced. As I'm not quite a handy man, i had to completely destroy the old one with a hammer in order to remove it. I could be a better handy man if I just took a minute to find out if I should turn clockwise or counter-clockwise to remove the nut. It was a dramatic lesson but I'm learning from every such domestic mistake I make.

The new tap looked fantastic, it doesn't leak at the location it used to leak but it's is leaking somewhere else. I moved the pail I used to collect water from the top of the sink to under the sink. It may still be leaking but its no big deal because this time i know exactly what is wrong. I just do not have the tools to remedy it but I just need some time to get the right tools. (Mag will find this statement familiar)

Anyway I'm still thinking about the extra $22 this month on the new tap. The last tap lasted only slightly more than a year. But I figure the nice lunch at Mag's aunty's house on Saturday and dinner at my grand-uncle's today sort of made up for it. Furthermore, i thought about someone whom I know spent $990 on a gold tap and I feel better just knowing that mine doesn't cost gold.

Actually I can go on counting, comparing and doing earthly economics but it'll never make sense in the heavenly realm. In God, He just knows about giving and about blessing us. A ll we need to do is cut the calculations, start following and receiving all that he wants us to have.

Frankly neither earthly or spiritually economics make much sense to me. All i know is that God loves me and my tap in heaven is golden.. (wouldn't it if the heavenly floor will be ?)
