food shelf donation

 i had seen a posting this week about a food shelf near my workplace. i called and asked about how to make a donation, and it meant going there during my lunchtime as they close for the day around the time that i finish my shift. i had six cans of whole kernel corn that i had claimed a while back but i hadn't eaten yet, so that is what i sent them. most of what i claim from boxes left by dumpsters in my neighborhood, i do eat. since i tend to claim non-perishables, and tend to be picky about what is available. so i did my good deed for the day. an elderly woman answered the door so i gave the cans to her. the place was about a mile away from my workplace, and when i drove back to the bank i still had enough time to have lunch. it took a little while to get caught up on going through the mail since there was two days to go through, as it hadn't been sorted in the mailroom right away. i placed the monthly supply order in the afternoon, but re-routed it as i got an out of office reply from who i normally send it to. i got a can of schell's beer from the liquor store next to the hy-vee in eagan, then did my weekly grocery order in the adjacent building. later on in the evening i went on a walk and found 63 cents. i also claimed a bag of doritos that was in a bag of subway sandwiches and bottles of vitamin water. this ties back to the aforementioned standards about what i choose when it is laying out. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when sheldon befriends a bird and then puts up 'missing' posters after he loses the bird. it was followed by the one where sheldon and leonard buy helium, and the tank is labeled 'uncle harvey' and given a hat and scarf. mike rapaport guest stars as the man who they buy it from, and at the end of the episode they watch 'ernest goes to jail' with him.
