Sanding
Tuesday evening already, and we are tired.
Today we left on time and when we arrived all the windows were whole again :D.We started Sanding and scrabbin immediatly. Half a hour later the Qatar students joined us. While we were sanding the contruction workers and some of the Students were working on the roof.
After we took of the sheet of the roof yesterday and the ceiling, we could see the wood in the ceiling (the skeleton) is also rotten. This means we needed more wood and more time. However they did a good job today.
Sanding is not always a nice job, besides getting the dust all over you (Take a look at the pictures) it also is tiring and some times even boring. Some of the Qatar students were a little demotived and started playing with the kids, which was also fun to see.
Some others were really hard working and looked like dust mans afterward. At 12 we figured we sanded almost everything, Only the top on the outside must still be done. However we only had 3 ladders. We decided to leave things for the day and go back to Stenden, to wash everything of.
Now it is 5 hours later and still when we sneeze or scratch our ears we find blue dust everywhere.
More good news is that there are a lot of people raising money for us. Some people also had the idea to gather materials like pens, books ect. This is ofcourse also really helpfull :) Since we need also things to put inside and to work on with the children.
Tomorrow we hope the sanding will be finished, and we will make a start with filling up the creacks and maybe, maybe we can start painting.
