    maybe I'm just getting old but even direct, simple, easy-to-follow instructions/directions are kicking my ass!
    Perhaps I'm overthinking it too much or something. Regardless, I need some help.

    First is some mosquito netting:

    Also my wife bought a spin mop which you think would be intuitive but it wasn't!

    Finally I needed a plastic protective cover for my phone - but where do I get my own airplane?
    There's always a catch, am I right?

    Did you remember to break apart the switch down? That is probably your problem with your friend in the airplane.,

    I made some progress on the spin mop! I totally mastered "mopping 90 degrees rotation to the screw rod direction another child under the bar" :larry:

    That looks suspiciously like the mosquito net instructions my parents had to deal with when we were in India last February :chris:
