Do you have your own little tool box with your special tools for yourself in there?
I think every woman needs her own little box, drawer, bin with certain tools in it.
Now my problem comes cause dh gets in there and uses them and somehow they end up in the shed with his gargantuan tool supply. I am going to put a lock on them ...LOL
My dh worked for a few months for an office furniture making factory here in town, which was wonderful because it created so many jobs. There is nothing to work at here other than coal mining and minimum wage jobs. Anyway, the man who owned the factory gave everyone a lovely wooden tool caddy with their names on it. Then after Christmas break the employees went back to work and lo and behold the owner had pad locked the doors and was GONE? Never did find out what happened. Anyway dh gave me that tool caddy for my tools.
In it I have all my daddy's tools that I ask mom for when dad passed away. It isn't his big tools just the little things he kept inside to do repairs for mom. She thought it was silly that I wanted them but gave them to me anyway. So in my tool box I have a small hammer, a ***** driver of each type, wire cutters, a tape measure, a small level, some *****s, small nails for hanging pics and a couple other things.
Where are your tools and what do you keep in your space for them.

I don't have any of those sorts of tools......I'm tellin' ya', my dh would pass out from fright if he saw me hammerin'. Oh my word......just that mental pic makes me laugh.
I did see some cute little pink toolboxes in Wally World last spring....Lordy, Lordy, at the eye rollin' my crew did! Funny stuff.

I have one! ;D I got sick and tired of going into that black hole of Jack's looking for things and generally not finding what I wanted anyway. LOL I have a hammer, measuring tape, *****drivers, one of those wrenches with a wheely thing, pliers and I don't know what all else. When I need a level I do snitch one of Jack's, they are about the only thing that is easy to find as he has them hung up. I bought a small tool box at the $$ store for all my 'stuff' and Jack knows it hands off or else!

I have some tools in my junk drawer in the kitchen. A hammer and a couple of *****drivers and some needle nose pliers. I asked for and got an electric *****driver for my Birthday last year!
Don't you know DH was in heaven to be able to buy a tool for his wife!

I think I should organize myself a little tool box. I usually wait until Pierre is home when I need a ***** driver or a hammer...Like Dee, I hate go looking in his tools. I never find anything, anyways. lol
