Happy Exhaustion

It's only Wednesday and I'm already tired! Yesterday, we spent the day in the distribution center. Normally they serve around 160-180 cars, but it was raining nearly all day, and we only had around 70 cars. We made up food, hygiene, paper and other kits for folks. Lots of hauling of boxes! The manager of a local Mariott stopped by and donated close to 2 dozen comfortors. Apparently they change out the bedding regularly and she brought us literally all that would fit into her car!

Whenever you make donations to a food pantry or Faith Mission or something like that - please donate jam or jelly (in plastic jars). We have skids and skids of peanut butter but no jelly. Later I'll post the list of stuff they normally run low on, so the next trip down here can have a better idea of what to bring.

We're going back out to "Norma's" house today to help finish cleaning up her yard and slab. She is just the nicest lady - more on her later, since I'm late for morning devotions!
