First Couple of Days

So to start, the video blogs are not happening yet. There is about twenty minutes a day of private time and that is used for showering. So I apologize and I know it sucks that you all don’t get to see my lovely face ; )

                I am learning so much about construction and am realizing that I really am not going to be doing any actual construction…. Who knew?

                Really what I am going to be doing is just advising the volunteers as they do the work. This is good, however it may limit my actual getting ripped ability.

                I guess I should really say that this first post is really going to be very all over the place. I am sitting right now trying to learn/play a card game and there are so many people around. So once again…

I apologize.

We find out the people that we are actually going to be spending the summer with tomorrow night. It is going to rock! We still have about ten days of training but next Sunday we will be leaving for our counties.

I want to give you all the basic layout for the day. So to do this in a conducive way I have decided to make a list. So here it goes

7:20 get up and go to devo’s

7:45 go to breakfast

                                Note: every day we have different chores and which may include but is not limited to cleaning the bathrooms, dining area, or doing the dishes. Dishes suck because it’s doing the dishes for over 100 people. But for the most part is like my new friend Victoria said, “Construction boot camp.”

                There are so many people here and I am doing my best to learn everyone’s names but you all know me and my ability to remember names is very limited. For example:

                I have asked the same girl what her name is and have told her each time that if I ask her again to punch me in the stomach. I KEEP FORGETTING!

So I am putting it here her name is Mary.

It’s kinda sad because the guy to girl ratio is so off that there will only be one guy in each staff group. I know what some of you are saying. Those are good odds ; )

However, I really like the dudes here. They are all really cool and I want to be on their staffs as well.

It’s late and I am ready for bed so I will post again in the next couple of days when there are more interesting things going on. Just know that I miss everyone and God is really doing awesome stuff here.
