First Day at Second Harvest Food Bank!

My first day went very well -- lots of things to learn, new faces and names - but all people with a mission to help end hunger.  I was certainly not a square peg in a round hole for once - in fact, the CEO asked me about myself and I said that I was usually the square peg but was feeling like I belonged there, and he stood up and shook my hand and introduced himself as a Square Peg!  I like that.  Tomorrow I get to go through the warehouse and see how things work out there.  Later in the week, I will be going to two mobile food pantry sites.  They don't have a building, the semi or truck pulls up to the designated site, the volunteers throw up their tables and do some sorting, and away they go giving out food to the eligible people who are waiting.  It should be very interesting.

I'm really really tired now.  I didn't sleep much last night, nervous you know.  Plus, the dog was pigging all of the covers.  He is like moving a bag of wet cement and he grunts and groans and mutters if you try.

Jim had his aneurysm ultrasound today to check on how it was looking.  It is no bigger and no smaller than it was 3 months ago so we can wait another 3 months and look at it again.

God is good!  All the time!
