today, as we were heading out to do a few errands, the doorknob came off in my grandson’s hand as he was locking the door…

so, besides the planned errands, we also went to Home Depot to get a new handle for the door…

I was very happy that this happened when he was home as I wasn’t sure that I could fix it…

once we returned home, my fancy screwdriver came out, pieces were removed from the door…

the new pieces were installed…

and voila, a beautiful new handle on the door…

it feels much sturdier, and although the handle is a bit stiff, I think the door is closing and locking better;-)…
