Habitat for Humanity.

After several years of interest and no action, I can finally cross it off my list. This past Saturday I was able to dedicate the whole day to a project. Eye-opening does not even begin to describe the experience. The drive to South Dallas was an experience in itself. Passing by a Williams Fried Chicken and a Brotherhood Food Market, I realized how different my world is. From 8 to about 12 I helped build the interior of the house. Hammering for four hours straight is no joke. After a 30 minute lunch, I moved onto the exterior of the house, where I put in brick handles around the house. I only wish I had more free weekends to give.

My poor body was not used to the all day manual labor I put it through. I know I am going to be sore for days.
