Today was Amber's first day on the job site. It was so much fun having her see what it is I do every day. We probably had around 80 volunteers today. Brian was pouring concrete so he asked me to run to Home Depot to purchase a kneeling pad. We still couldn't find exactly what he was looking for so we decided to check the gardening section. I grabbed two kneeling pads from there as Brian never told us exactly what we were looking for. After returning to the job site, Brian tells us these were not the correct kneeling pads. Amber and I jumped back in the car and ran to Lowes, where we finally found what we were looking for. We stood in line for about 25 minutes as their system was down. Though the day was a bit out of the ordinary, it was great having Amber here. It was pretty hot by the end of the day and we were in and out of AC all day so it was hard to adjust to the heat. We are once again on a heat advisory for the next 48 hours.
It's going on 10 PM and Amber has been asleep since 7 PM. I also took a quick nap but needed to get up to post and to get us ready for tomorrow. We'll let you know how the day goes tomorrow.
