Today I got to help with gardening. It was the house of an older woman(whom i dont recall the name). The garden was full of a weed that had spread everywhere, a few annoying ferns and some mean rose bushes. My arms are sore and tired from the work, but the yard and garden look great. After that i went and helped painting at the flat again. It was the hardest i have worked painting so far. This time the cause was an older man named John. One time after i had almost perfectly painted around a stainless steel towel holder (just so the roller wouldnt have to touch it), i go to paint somewhere else. I look back and i see john using the roller and the towel holder is now blue. What FUN it was to clean up blue paint. Even with the troubles aside, i had a great time today. Oh yeah, it was Andrew's 18th birthday today and at dinner he was surprised with a cake. When we got back to the Breen's house (our host family) he was surprised with a gift of some scout badges and a scarf (boy scout scarf and patches) as well as a t-shirt. I dont really want to go home yet, i fancy it here.
