Hello, I'm glad to see you
I'm so glad you came along
Could you help me with this switch box
is the red line right or wrong?
Can you hold the door wide open
While I fix the loose hinge there?
I could never do it all alone,
I'm so happy you are here.
The smell? Oh that's just the basement
The radon is high down there
But don't worry the bug man treated it
Last time he was here.
Do you know how to hang sheetrock?
It will help you if you know that
For the landlord hasn't fixed this hole yet
That happened when I chased that polecat.
I hope plumbing is in your can-do's
For the faucet leaks just a bit
The noise lulls my hubby to sleep
But for me it's like electric sheep
I try not to count while wondering
What I'll do when this house is sold
Will I ever find one more suited to me
Before I grow too old
To find another "fixer-upper"?

You don't know how close you are to the truth here

I appreciate your rhymer and the few helpful hints are noted.
Well wishes upon judging.
