113. Calluses

I was helping with some physical work at the community center I work at.  We were digging, breaking concrete and pouring concrete.  I realized how soft my hands had become, after a day of working I had blisters.

It has not always been that way.  During high school I mowed lawns, worked in our garden and help my father with home improvement and landscaping jobs.  My hands were tough.  But when I started college all of my jobs have been in front of a computer, catering, traveling or doing educational programming.

I miss having tough hands that do not need gloves, I guess that means that I need to start helping around the house more here in Moldova.
