So in trying to keep with fairness of my blogs, I thought I would post up a list of things that every man should know how to do. Let's face it, there are a lot of single men out there who haven't found Mrs. Right yet to "take care of them", so until they can find her, they have to manage somehow. Their Mommas won't always be there to take care of them, just like our Daddies won't always be there to take care of us.
1) Sew on a button and/or stitch up a ripped seam
2) Do laundry and remove a stain off any piece of clothing
3) Bake cookies, brownies, cupcakes...You know, the basics :)
4) How to color match/decorate your place so it doesn't look like a frat house after a party
5) Cook more than mac 'n cheese and microwave dinners/soup
6) Jump start a car
7) Basic "handyman" duties (hammer a nail, fix small things around the house, etc.)
8) Buy groceries smartly...checking prices, looking for sales, and using coupons
9) How to properly plunge a clogged toilet (and avoid creating a yucky, wet mess all over the bathroom)
10) Learn how to give a compliment to a woman
11) Paint a room without making a mess and staying within the lines
12) Tie a bow tie
13) Clean a wound and dress it properly (other than with super glue!)
14) Dust and vacuum so the house doesn't look like the desert
15) Iron a shirt and other wrinkly clothes
I am sure I am forgetting some things, but based on my past dating and live-in boyfriend experience, these seem to rise to the top. Are there any that you think are important for men to know how to do?
