Husband wanted

Okay, so I used to find it charming that my husband had NOOOOO clue how to fix anything. But now I just find it really frustrating. I mean he knows how to hang dry wall, better than most professionals, and he can fix the fiberglass on his surfboard...but that is the extent of his "man knowledge". My father had no clue either but he would try, after 37 years of marriage he can do just about anything, but Jefferson, what can I say, if something breaks he will just walk out of the room, he won't even tell me until I encounter the offending object myself, WHAAAT?

So the toilet in his bathroom broke....the bathroom I remodeled....it hasn't flushed right for 2 weeks. I won't call a plumber because Jefferson spent $800 on playoff tickets. I REFUSE to pay a plumber. So what does he do????NOTHING, he didn't even plunge the toilet, I did. He wouldn't snake it I did. When nothing worked he just came back to my bathroom. The plumber told me the next time this happened it would cost me $400, because he would remove the toilet. WHAT!!!! $350 to remove the toilet, haha, for 3 screws really? So I went to the bathroom and remove the toilet screws then I had to wait for him to come pick up the toilet, then he asked me to help!!!! UGHHH can you tell how frustrated I am/was. Then he gets mad at me because Iwas testy, and abrupt, does he not understand that yes, I am/was a tomboy, I had 2 bothers, no sisters and I have had to fight others my entire life so yes there is this masculine side of me....but I am SICK of being the one to fix everything.....I have a running joke that every time something in my home breaks that I strap on my "member" and get to work (Don't be alarmed I have the sense God gave me to keep this to myself)!

WANTED: Husband that isn't afraid to try to fix something, anything, including dinner! Will jump right in when a child cries in the middle of the night, comes up with great solutions for night waking, sleep walking, and puberty!
Doesn't think dishwater is battery acid, willing to grocery shop and STAY IN THE BUDGET, if fact must know that his budget allows him to shop at Ralph's and Albertson's, not Wholefoods and Gelson's. Knows which end of the toilet brush goes into the toilet, in fact must know what goes in the toilet and what goes around it! AND just like the current model must LOVE laundry, but unlike the current model must be able to put it away!

Necessary qualifications: MUST BE MUTE!
This position does not include sex, no benefits at all!
