Wow what a day!

Sorry for the lack of posts, we had a lot of the agenda today. We were up and at ‘em starting at 7:30 this morning. I did a little cleaning, made some coffee, and then we headed about 40 minutes away to do some volunteering.

Joe’s company has a partnership with the United Way and every year they take part in the United Way "Day of Caring". This year, we went to a nursing home to spend time with the residents.

Breakfast was a quick bagel thin and cream cheese, and some greek yogurt with kashi and kamut puffs.

Oh and of course, I packed some snacks. Because, well, that’s what I do. If you don’t know if there will be food, be prepared. :)

Grapes, Carrot Sticks, and a Fiber One bar I got free at my 5K.

And of course, the obvious

The whole group of volunteers, including two friendly pups who the residents really liked visiting.

Following the volunteering, I had to drive about an hour away to a baby shower for the rest of the afternoon. And then another hour home. I just got here and I am so happy!

We’re ordering a pizza, and then probably catching a movie.

Have a great evening!

What were you up to today? Any plans for Sunday?

Do you do any volunteer work?
