So the rest of the work week I ended up delivering bunk beds,
which is one of my favorite jobs since you are not only getting to see how the
components that were built in the workshop fit together, but also see the joy
on the faces of the people we deliver them to. It was especially fun on the
second day of delivering bunk beds because Jake was one of the volunteers with
us (last year the only day we worked together was the Thursday during which we
delivered bunk beds) and at the first place we went to deliver beds there were
One Direction, Justin Bieber, and other tween idols plastered all over the
walls of the bedroom and Jake randomly started singing (and dancing) “What
Makes You Beautiful” and “Boyfriend”. It was even better when he danced with
the power drill. And then at the second
place he attempted a James Bond move with the power drill.
On our day
off yesterday, a bunch of us decided to go horseback riding, which was a lot of
fun…well except for the part when my horse wouldn’t always trot or gallop when
I wanted her to. But the view was phenomenal and definitely worth the soreness
I’m feeling today.
I made it through my first week on
staff at Re-Member and am looking forward to seeing how the next few weeks go.
