All I Really Need to Know, I Learned While Volunteering for Habitat for Humanity in Courtenay, BC Canada

What “I” learned while volunteering for Habitat for Humanity.

You get to wear cool pink helmets.

Your hot pink tool belt has a compartment for your hot pink lip gloss.

John is not

 the only stud.

These are toe nails. 

So are these.

This is a header.

 As is this.

This is a crown.

So is this.

A hammer stapler works best if

you hammer with the correct side.

Measure twice.

Cut once. 

                              Being on the roof is scary.

This should be scary!

One volunteer…  good.

Two volunteers… better.

Six volunteers… the best.

Hammering is fun,

 unless 

you 

 hit 

your thumb, 

 not once,

 but,

 twice, resulting in 

  going to your

brother-in-law, Shenley’s house

so, he can take a sterilized needle and, 

drill not one, not two but, three, yes, drill three holes into your thumb nail 

in order to relieve

 the pressure and, 

take away the pain.
