Scrapers

We finished painting the houses yesterday, so the Mid-Hi teams were sent downtown to Trinity United Methodist Church. There, we were to scrape paint off of metal staircases and railings, which turned out to be incredibly difficult.

Unfortunately/Fortunately (it truly depends on your point of view) early in the day, one of the girls was sitting near me and somehow accidentally scraped my back with her scraper... and it felt amazing. [We're still unsure of how it all happened - it was such a blur.] So paintscrapers turn out to be really excellent back scratchers. If you've ever had your head massaged/rubbed, it feels like that... but on your back. Yeah. It's not just like a regular ol' backscratching session. It's more relaxing. Soothing.

Thus, I don't think I need to say how much time was spent in backscratching chains.

It. was. epic.
