Skilled Trades

Daily writing prompt
What skill would you like to learn?

As a woman who has had the blessing of a college education, I feel that I lack the skills of fixing issues that involve to keep a home functioning. I think those individuals who have earned proper licenses or certificates then help others who have problems with electrical, plumbing or construction are priceless.

For example, my current home needed a new furnace and a new air conditioner as well as a new roof plus updated paint job. It could use updated windows plus upgrades to the kitchen and bathroom. Who would be interested in these projects and capable of creating what I need? Qualified skilled trades persons who got training in a classroom then worked on a “master” before going out on his/her own. Truthfully, one doesn’t see too many women in these positions that are in high demand probably everywhere.

As I enter my mid 60s but feel like forty, I don’t believe that I will ever learn what these hero’s do. Truthfully, I am blessed that they have helped me with my home so that me and my felines could live here safely. Cheers to the Skilled Trades people who help us out daily!

In Deep Gratitude,

Leslie Elizabeth David.
