Yes, I’m physically fitter, cook better, am more informed upon our world and have done some washing machine and dishwasher repairs.

@fmf saidYouTube started out as a really good thing - and then the bean counters at the company decided to pad their accounting ledgers by cramming the videos full of ad's, sometimes one every 3-4 min. I don't do youtube much anymore. 😕
I am certainly more positively disposed towards the cute things puppies do, even though I am a cat person through and through.

when it comes to repairs i am quite handy, too
when i am faced with a job i've not yet done, or just require a refresher, youtube has so many videos, covering so many subjects, i often look there first
has youtube changed my life?
heck yeah!
wanna know something else?
of all the teachers, books, wives, the internet, sages, science, dogs

@drewnogal saidYes, you do. I know a lady that does all her home repairs herself. She is now over 65 and still working in a Nursing home, still doing her own home repairs. Even mows her own grass, shovels her own snow. Stays very active which she claims keeps her young. She has had one knee replacement. I've known her for about 30 years now I guess it would be, man where did the time go?
