Manual Labor

That's right this past Saturday Rene and I worked our butts off putting in some quality community service. We were painting and scraping the exterior of a house here in Dallas along side other Deloitte employees for their annual Hearts and Hammers event.

Each year Deloitte works with the local Hearts and Hammers group to help fix up the home of a local person who has fallen on hard times. We spent from 9am on Saturday until around 2pm scraping old paint and then re-painting the exterior of the house.

Even though my arms and legs were feeling it by the end of the night on Saturday and even worse on Sunday it was great to be able to donate some time to the community. Even if it meant that I didn't get to sleep in this past weekend :)
