Today was a better day

I picked up an award at work today. After Hurricane Rita, I joined thousands of others and went to the Red Cross to volunteer. They never mobilized me, but ironically I was quickly pulled into a number of Hurricane Relief-related projects at work. Last summer I was informed that I would be receiving an award for that; today in a staff meeting they gave it to me. It was nice to be able to contribute even when I didn't get to volunteer. That one is going on the wall, and I'll look at it with some pride.
