RE: 😂 My Life's Journey - Bathroom Renovations Funny Stories - "Saving Money" 😂
Oh... I totally get you on the "super dad saves the day with penny wise pound foolish" moments.
But hey, they are the generation that were the most creative and resilient and you got to hats off to them, except this time it was a hiccup instead.
Sometimes moments like this you'd start to realise that your dad is just another human and family member who needs as much help as anyone else in the weaker chain in the family, and that builds so much grace, care, and empathy knowing that as long as we are there for each other, a simple apology builds the bond.
I do agree with you with the resilient and creative part. My father lived through some difficult times. I understand where it is all comes from. He had to feed three kids during and after the war. He had to save money on anything he could. I completely understand his mentality.
But in this case it was needed as ai had enough money to do it the right way. Which would prevent the wall "running" away from me. Lol
But, it was all part of one big journey and I look back at it with a smile. Because it is just another great memory of my father in my books. 😀
