HABITAT HOUSE

The United Methodist Churches in our county are building a Habitat for Humanity House. They only work on the houses on Saturdays, so Handyman Husband has spent several Saturdays working at the house. They've had a slight problem of having more volunteers than work for them to do. That's a wonderful problem to have. There has been a lot of interest in the project. They have 2 crews per Saturday - one works 8-12 and the other 1-5. Volunteers bring lunch at 12:00 to feed both the morning and afternoon crews. That's the part I've been helping with. So far, there has been a lot of "ladder" work and I don't do ladders. I'm hoping to be able to help out when they get to painting or landscaping. The house is for a single lady who has 4 daughters. She's been working at the site each Saturday. It's going to be a real cute house when it's finished. It's got 3 bedrooms, living room, kitchen, 1 full bath, and a 1/2 bath/laundry room combination. So far the weather has been cooperating and they're 3 weeks ahead of schedule. The outside of the house is finished so now the weather won't affect the work. The girls are all excited about getting their new house.
