I signed up to volunteer at a local place that serves free meals to the community. So I'll be there doing kitchen prep for lunch on July 18th. They have a community dining center and serve 3 meals a day to anyone who wants or needs to eat. They also do a lot of other stuff for the community. I'm looking forward to it, a little nervous but excited to. I'm gonna try to start signing up for 2-3 shifts a month and see how I do with that. I want to get more experience for when I start part-time working somewhere (hopefully the library, still waiting to hear back about that, maybe I'll call and check on the status of my application next week after the holiday)

My apartment building had a cookout/potluck thing yesterday for an early 4th of July celebration, it was nice and the food was good

I'm very excited about the changes coming in my life and pushing myself out of my comfort zone

Hope everyone has a peaceful weekend
What fantastic news. Congratulations on your volunteer job, 2-3 shifts is a doable goal. Greats news about being able to continue with school now!
