I arrived early this brisk spring morning to clean the office.

With that uneventful task behind me, I prepped a laptop that needed to head to J.D.: a courier.

“…She also did a little jig when I told her she could keep the bag that came with he laptop.”

As I scrambled to find a shipping box, one was delivered to me by the hands of Fedex; a coincidental donation from a school administrator.

At 1:45 on the dot the prospective volunteer called and we had a short conversation. He currently does logistics for a… perfume company? He seemed enthusiastic enough and agreed to send over some references. 

Later in the day, a recipient; “V” showed up. She was very appreciative, loved the office and encouraged us to continue on…She also did a little jig when I told her she could keep the bag that came with he laptop.

I dropped off the aforementioned laptop with USPS had lunch, then came back to start the setup process for our latest donation: a laptop encrusted with filth but otherwise in working condition. All diagnostics green.
