Community Service Project

For the community service project on Friday we went to a lady's house and did housework and yard work for her and her husband. We cleaned her bathrooms, vacuumed, and organized their office. The client was blind and took care of her son and grandson. She was very kind and willingly accepted our help. She would talk to us while we were working. She had two dogs (one was her seeing eye dog), two cats, a bird, and an aquarium. One of their cats (the big, white, fluffy one) decided that my sweatshirt would make a nice pillow so it curled up on it and went straight to sleep. I didn't mind so I let it sleep. I felt bad about moving it when we had to go. They also had many things in their house which we tried to organize while we cleaned. While we were organizing their office we saw that she had the whole Bible in braille on their shelves. I thought this was really cool. It was a great experience and it felt good to help someone who really could use our help. We did some work outside like weeding and mowing the lawn. Their yard was in pretty good shape and the client's husband worked with us out in the yard. The fact that they accepted our help made it easier for us to help them.
