As many of you may know, one of my goals for 2010 was to do something out of my comfort zone. Those of you that know me well, know that I am not an outgoing person who will go up and talk to someone I don't know, so this would prove to be a tough goal. Well, thankfully, Rae Ann knows that I am not outgoing and one of her goals was to do a volunteer project each month. She included me in her project for May, so I helped at a Food Pantry in Milwaukee. While I didn't actually deal with the people coming to the pantry, I stocked shelves and filled the bags that would be handed out, I was definitely out of my comfort zone. I like doing things that I am familiar with, in areas I am familiar with, with people I am familiar with. (Out of the 6 of us that volunteered, I knew 3 and one was Brian)
So, there is one goal for 2010 that I can most certainly cross off the list as accomplished. I am still working on the others. And thanks to Rae Ann for knowing me so well and thinking to include me-even though we did have the furthest drive to get there. It was a great time!!!
