As so eloquently stated by Darren.. My office helped out Habitat for Humanity. The houses were in North St Louis which if you know anything about STL you know it is a ghetto wasteland of crumbling brick houses (though it used to be a really beautiful old timey neighbourhood). The city is pushing for redevelopment and this is one of many projects going on at the moment (across the street they are restoring a bitchin church). The women we are helping out (the soon to be homeowner) has to put in 460 hours of sweat equity into her house. She was well deserving and very sweet. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy and also very tired. It was reminiscent of past mission trips only this time I got to wear shorts and not skirts AND I'll get to check out the house when its done. I'm sooo bitchin with a hammer.
