One thing I'll have to say about volunteering for Meals on Wheels - it is anything but a thankless task. I was certainly reminded of that today as I had volunteered to work an extra day to cover my route. All my customers were sort of caught off guard, expecting to see me next Thursday rather than this Friday. After expressing surprise, many of them then took the time to thank me for the regular deliveries and also for filling in when necessary. At two of the homes, there were aides or visitors who joined in the thanks. And at one house a neighbor walking a dog asked if I was delivering meals. When I said I was, she thanked me.
I figure today was simply pay day for Meals on Wheels.
