This episode on the Handy Ma'am Hotline, Mercury talks about why you might not be able to switch a ceiling light for a ceiling fan, but also gives encouragement to try if you feel brave! She also answers a question about water softeners, getting a sink stopper to start working again, how to explain things in a kind way, and what to do about the nasty bits that fall between the oven and counter.
