Yoga with Donna is always a great way to start off our Tuesday mornings! It’s just so rejuvenating and makes me feel ready for the day ahead. She also tries to help me get my hamstring back to tip-top shape, and it’s great to know that she actually cares. The other people in the class are also great—we talk before and after class every week. After yoga, we helped wash more cucumbers and celery. But rather than making the juice, Tom let us help him make smoothies again today! There was more cilantro this time, and he even added red bell pepper and ginger, which gave the drink a bit more of a kick. I even got to have a smoothie for myself today (it was semi-drinkable…the flavor is good but the texture and consistency are awful, especially if you let it sit in the fridge for awhile).

After lunch, Jacob took Erica and me back to Sherwin Williams. We realized that we didn’t have an extra roller, paint trays, or tarp. The same girl was there and helped us again. But this time I’m pretty sure that she thought that whatever project we were doing was doomed to fail. When Erica and I got back to the Center, we worked on painting the wall with the background color (robin’s egg blue) but only got a quarter of the way through because we were scared to use the rusty ladder to get to the tall parts and we only had half an hour to paint. We are probably going to finish the background tomorrow, weather permitting, since that’s the real battle here. We’re starting to feel a time crunch though, so if it doesn’t get finished by next week, we already talked to Cindy about letting us finish it after we graduate. So if anyone likes to paint/is artistic and wants to help, please do! :)
