Tonight we headed back to SSJ to crack on with some more painting to spruce up the communal areas.

David showed up for his second GoodGym task so Lynn and I straight him straight to work up the ladder in the kitchen getting all those hard to reach places thanks to his incredible height! Lynn cracked on in the corner of the kitchen previously unpainted as it was behind the large fridge freezer, to get a first coat done. I helped David with the edges to get that wall complete, and of course supervised his ladder climbing, while enjoying some donuts that Erin from SSJ kindly ensured were dairy free! Sarah and Vicki were left to there own devices in the small office that needed a second coat. Sarah of course did a great job bringing her own equipment to get some all important edges done, while Vicki was working so hard she actually broke a roller!

We're back at SSJ again next week so make sure you sign up as there is still plenty to be done!

Struggling to run and talk at the same time since 2017. Speed by name, not by nature.
