HOME AND REPAIR
Dress for sucess
I learned that I can repair my clothes
instead of always buying new clothes
I also learned how to properly take care
of clothes. Some important tips I learned were to follow washing instructions, separate your clothes and
to hang dry your jeans
Searching accomodations
I learned that a shelter has to meet your
basic needs.
I also learned that a shelter/ house is not a home, a house
is just a building but a home is where you feel comfortable.
I also learned that when buying a house, it not
just one expense but buying a house is very expensive
as you have to factor in paying mortgage, property tax,
land transfer tax and many other expenses
Home maintenance
I learned that to save money on our house/shelter
we can do repairs by ourselves
I also learned how to repair a faucet properly
I learned that a functional shelter requires basic supplies and equipment, in addition to furniture and appliances
