Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings all around the world
I was wondering if anyone else spotted the flock of white herons/ cranes flying from the river earlier in the day? If so, maybe better recognize what they were? They didn't look like any I've seen around here. It was a beautiful sight to see!
The most amazing thing happened to us tonight my Daughter doesn’t have a sled for my grandson so I Posted looking for a cheap baby sled on Kingsville buy and sell and a girl told me they had them at Canadian tire for $35.00 and showed a picture of it I said no I was looking for cheaper one. A few hours later a man posted saying he can help me out with a sled he said it was free and he will deliver it he said just give him about an hour I was grateful because we didn’t have the money to buy one right now.
Now I’m at a loss for words, he bought my grandson his very first sled.
Thank you Grant
I worked late tonight, so all the way home all I thought about was all the snow I'd have to clear from my driveway. Although it didn't snow that much, I get a lot of drifting snow that piles up. I got home to find my driveway already cleaned. I've asked friends, family & neighbours if they were responsible so I could thank them, but no one claims they did it.
So to the Good Samaritan that cleaned my driveway today and made my day end on a happy note, THANK YOU so very much. Your kindness was very much appreciated.
People are always texting, phoning and driving , going through red lights .
I saw a woman getting out of her car at a coffee shop off the Expressway recently and asked her if she was alright ( she looked teary and really upset) . She said she was driving , like she always does and talking on her cellphone , like she always does , checking her texting , like she always does. She was driving down the expressway and at the exit - the light had been red- a woman got out of her car and went to her . She told her that she saw her talking on her phone and checking her phone ( for texts) . She said she wanted to tell her off and tell her it was none of her business. She passes police all the time and never gets stopped. The other lady started crying and said because of people like her who cannot leave their phones alone while driving , her fiancee was killed the night before their Wedding- a guy went through the Red light and he was on the phone. The following day when there was a whole church full of people waiting for them , she was picking out a casket for her fiancee. She said she was going to stop driving altogether for a while cause it kills her EVERY time she sees a driver on the phone because to her, it means they have no regard for anyone but themselves and NO REGARD for HUMAN LIFE.
It seems that no matter how much is said about phones, texting and going through Red lights , reading in the paper that a young person died in an accident , or whole families getting killed, it just isn't stopping. I keep my cell phone in the trunk when I'm driving- if someone calls , I can check it when I'm not driving .
How high do the fines have to be ? How stiff do the penalties have to be?
Could you only imagine the revenue that would be mounting if more people were ticketed . Raising taxes would NEVER be an issue. Just ticketing people who think they are above the law and "high 5'ing " cause they keep getting away with it.
and if the lady on the expressway reads this - I'm so sorry for you loss.
Went for a walk at the river this afternoon and was pleasantly surprised by someone's random act of kindness :)
I think the pictures speak for themselves.
Today a lady and her family were shopping at the mall, when she took her daughter to the bath room she forgot her purse (phone wallett ids everything) went back and it was gone, so she tracked her IPhone and the phone had been tracked to near my mother inlaws house I had went over there to see what was going on and we helped her track it again, eventually after a long search in the cold we got half of her stuff back!
Signed a very happy family that are glad we could help your family! :)
Thank you to the kind woman who helped me at Walmart around 3:30 pm today. I was having some trouble standing in line while using my cane and trying to unload my items onto the conveyer. You asked me if it would be ok if you helped me. You proceeded to unload my cart onto the conveyer and you placed my purchases back into the cart ... Thank you so much for your kind gesture, you were a diamond in the rough today.
To the lady in Walmart on Tecumseh road around 6 tonight thank you so much for kind gesture. I was standing in line to cash out and realized I had left my bank card in my car. So I asked if i let you go ahead of me would you just watch my cart so I could run and grab it. As it turned out I had actually left in on my dresser at at home. I went back in as to let a employee know so they could put my items back for me and you chased me down offering to pay for what was in my cart. I didn't have much but couldn't allow you to do that.
I just wanted to say thank you for your kind heart! You made my night!!
So you have been spotted!!
