mhm

woke up early this morning. not as early as i thought we would. i guess i got the time wrong. anyways we had to be in the "turtle" by 7:45 AM. we arrived at the very nice site for building a home for habitat for humanity. i love the style of the home. like, i would live in one if the inside were a little nicer. like they aren't bad inside, but i would like a better quality of things inside.

so we first cleaned up the site of scraps and got started on our job. a group of guys started some work on a roof. prepped it for shingles. then the girls got started on cleaning the inside of another house like vacuuming and washing windows and then started painting. doing some touch ups and trim. had lunch on the work site. mhm. and then i switched sides. worked with the boys on the roof. i ran the circular saw. only once because taylor was nervous i'd hurt myself. (i don't understand why...sherry.) got to do a few other things. i was just sick of painting. so we finished up at around 3.

back to the church to start more jobs. i was in a group though to canvas the neighborhoods so we don't have to go tomorrow morning. tomorrow will all be free day. i guess we might go hiking and then go to denver. might go to the mountains. not real sure. we are rather flexible. it's great.

so after we got back from the neighborhood we started dinner. it included: chicken and noodles, green beans and bacon bits, apple sauce, and a desert of angel food cake, strawberries, whipped cream/ice cream. it was incred.

then we finally got to shower. it was splendid. we are all exhausted. we all wished we could have gone to bed an hour or so ago. i made some popcorn on the stove; only the best. yes ma'am or sir. then i played some tennis on the wii with andy. we won, best out of 5. so that was good enough for me. i'm tuckered out. head has kinda been hurting since mid-morning. kinda just today on and off. it's a bit ridiculous. have a good night or day.
