Hi there, I’m Mimi — better known around here as Dan’s Daughter. I was single for 66 years and had to become my own fixit person whether I wanted to or not!

My father, Dan, was an old-school contractor, fixit person, and hero who could solve any household problem. He passed down to me a tremendous amount of knowledge that I still use today.

This website is geared toward people young and old who want to learn to become the fixit person in their household. I will start from the beginning recommending tools to set up a beginner’s guide to FIXIT 101.

I got married and divorced, and I find myself, again, in the role of my own fixit person. Dan went to heaven 15 years ago, so I miss his fixit advice terribly.

Full disclosure: I am an affiliate marketer, and I save links to products that I recommend. I receive a small commission if you click on my links and purchase products. Your help is greatly appreciated.
