We Had a Great Surprise!

We were just lolling around, minding our own business, when all of a sudden we can hear voices outside.
Our super strength hearing tells us it's going to be good!

Sure enough, it was Meg!  It was Derek!  We gave them our full on welcome back greeting.  They have come for Easter.  Janet took a photo of us with Meg, who was having a bad hair day and warned Janet with dire consequences if she posted the photo.  Janet must be afraid of Meg, because we didn't post the photo!

Sure enough, Thursday has rolled around again.  Janet was at work for 7AM for breakfast and stayed in the Nutrition Bar until 8:15AM.  Then she went upstairs to slice turkey for 2 1/2 hours.  Thursday was a special Easter meal at Our Place.  They had turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and root vegetables, gravy and apple pie.
Tables, set all pretty for Easter.

Look who's helping out!!  Meg and Katherine are peeling potatoes.
Janet helped dish up the food until her wrist was sore and then she and Meg traded spots.
Here you can see Meg's left arm, Mariem, Katherine, Doreen's right arm and the man who holds the whole thing together - Brian, food services manager.  Janet thinks she is really lucky to volunteer with such a great group of people.
After standing on her feet for so many hours, Noodles decided to give Janet an old fashioned big hello!
She is too tired to get off the sofa.  Lazy doggie!

  1. I had fun coming to work with you mom! Our Place offers a great service to the community & your hard work is obviously well appreciated. You are such a diligent and uncomplaining worker that they assumed I must also be and threw me right into turkey disassembly.
