“I can’t believe I did this all by myself,” she said.
She stepped out smiling to share her handy work on her own car.
“I’m so proud of myself because my headlight burned out and I replaced it myself,” she said.
Melissa explained why the DIY car repair was such a special moment for her.
“My ex-husband said that – it made me feel like I couldn’t do anything and I was doing this all by myself,” she said.
She placed her hand over her heart, smiled and celebrated her achievement.
“Can you see I’m so proud of myself?” she added.
The video attracted many viewers who gave their opinion about it.
“I love seeing queens reclaim their thrones,” one person wrote.
“They want us to believe we can’t do it without them, but not only can we, we thrive,” another added.
“Amazing,” a third commented. “I love the feeling of achieving something on your own that you were initially afraid of. You did it.”
“Girl, that’s just the beginning,” wrote yet another. “Once you learn, you want more. I’m so proud of you.”
“Same girl, same thing, and I’m here right now fixing my car and changing my own oil,” someone else said.
