Grandpa Tips, September 28, 2010 MOPS Meeting

They are the men who great you at your car with a smiling face and help you carry a child, purse, bag, food, etc into the meeting. They are MOPS Grandpas and they graciously provided us with some fix it tips at our meeting.

Here are just a few...

*To rehang a towel bar in the same spot you can screw an attractive piece of wood to the studs and attach the bar to the wood.

*You can use a potato cut in half to remove a broken lightbulb from the socket (after you turn off the power of course!)

*Always attach the positive to positive and negative to negative wires when jump starting a car.

--- Interesting fact they shared at the beginning of the talk was that between the four of them they have 200 years of marriage experience.

MOPS meetings...

Childcare is provided for birth to 5 years old by our happy workers and they look forward to attending to your children so you can have a break. Learn and laugh with other moms with young kids.

Returning moms: the meeting cost is $2. If you are new to MOPS, worried about what to expect, please come and let us welcome you -- your first meeting is free! A one-time fee of $23.95 pays for the MOPs International membership and includes a subscription to MOMsense magazine, weekly emails, and a book.

MOPS is the second and fourth Tuesday of every month, from September to May.
