Karen's recuperation

It is great to know that so many volunteers and helpers at Red Lake Rosie's keep things under control at the shelter while I am not available, proving that no one is indispensible!

I had foot surgery on April 5th and Mike Wilson has been doing a great job taking care of animals in the morning and evening, as well as running shuttle during the clinic, making vet runs and transports.

Mike has a great love for animals and has a great attitude. Mike never takes short cuts and has been 100% reliable.

RLRR has also had other volunteers during this time. Linda and David spent a weekend working and transporting and brought supper.

Nancy B. brought supplies, bought supper and lunch and took out a transport as well. Colleen Meyer spent the night and took out a transport. Heather and Billy made a trip out after the clinic to visit. Jill brought out goodies on her way to the clinic. Rae Ann brought casseroles and homemade buns, bars and hot dish.

Dee Dee coordinated the MN Snap clinic and had many volunteers including Mike, Lauren, Heather, Billy, Colleen, Kristen, Jill, Deb, Carol, Julie as well as some community young people. (Hope I didn't miss anyone)

Tom, Nancy and Carolyn have been a big help tranporting animals and food and helping at clinic. (Tom, Lauren & Nancy in photo).

Barbie Olson has also been transporting and sent a nice flowering plant. Kevin has been helpful daily with things I cannot do. Mouser, Riley, Julie, Cooper, Snowball, and Bridget have been on their "best behavior". Carol, Polly, and Jo are keeping up with the community needs as well.

To be honest, I am rather enjoying putting my foot up, sipping tea, and watching tv! The food is very good! It's like a vacation and I am getting spoiled.

There have been SO MANY people that have helped, thank you to all who helped at the clinic and who brought food and visited during this time.

Thank you all!!

Karen
