Tuesday, December 9, 2008: Hard Corners


Main Lining RREEALLY Tight Corners Careful Cutters
Of all things construction I think drywall gives me the hardest time with every outlet a perfect cutout. One piece this week we re-cut three times and still it didn't match. I could have swarn that the walls were really shifting. But we got it finally. Every piece of drywall I'm starting to realize has to be looked at seperately without looking too far ahead. After trying this method, by Saturday I found how much it better works and I couldn't believe how much we put up.
This week was also very nice since we had lots of volunteer holiday party's. This Wednesday, Robbie, one of our day volunteers and official on site photographer invited us to her house where we had an amazing pasta dinner. She and her husband Rick made stalkings fo all of us Americorps, which included high prized toilet paper. Thursday the day volunteers prepared a wonderful lunch for everyone working that day, which included the best homestyle turkey chili and gingerbread cookies, yum! Friday Noelle invited Joe and me for family style chinese in Redwood City where I met her dad, Dan. We ordered completely vegetarian with imitation Beef, which tasted REAL! It was a great a great time. Being in good company is always a good feeling.
