Horrible Driver

Thank you to the driver who hit me on my bike today at 9:30pm as I was biking to work because he couldn't wait .1 second to get to the Timmies ( when I had the right of way).
This happened at the Tim Horton's on Lauzon and wyndotte, as I was passing the driveway he stopped waiting to turn into the driveway ( with no signal may I add) as i was about half way he decided to step on his accelerator and drive up and hit my right leg and my back tire, leaving me to have more then a few choice words and a flipped finger to him and his GF, and my leg was shaking. my adrenaline was shot. Not only did I have not 1 but 3 white lights on the front ( 1 big one and 2 small on each side, as well as a red flashing light for the back of my bike, but I even had on a safety vest to help allow drivers to see me. and still I got managed to get hit! really... (should of taken his plate down and stuff, but my adrenaline was shot and I had to get to work, I bike from forest glade to downtown)

I understand that drivers hate bikes driving on the road and I get it and people are impatient, its actually quiet sad if you ask me. I hear everyone complain about people riding bikes, and I get it, but bikers have to respect the law just as much as drivers. The law wants us to bike on the road in a bike path, but even that doesn't feel so safe for us. I couldn't even bike on the sidewalk clearly without getting hurt. I do get it, I got annoyed some days when I would drive to work and a biker would be on the road and not able to pass due to oncoming traffic, but I respected the biker as well slow down stayed far behind and passed when clear, bikers are just going where they need to go as well, why can't people respect that.
Driving down riverside drive I stuck to the sidewalks I'm sorry but I'm not taking a chance on my life or getting seriously hurt, but even sticking to the sidewalk, every driver coming out of the side roads tend not to care about the stop signs,not using common sense to look both ways before you go, I get it no one wants to do a complete stop, but even when they do a complete stop they don't take precaution to everything around them and could end up in some serious damage.

Needless to say I am okay, just frustrated and I hope that the driver has a dent in their car, kinda wanted to Hulk smash the hood of the car. =)

Drive safe and bike safe everyone, know that .1 sec of your time can save someone keep that in mind.

What Would You Expect?

Consider this for a minute. Out of thin air, a person you have and will never meet decides to donate a Kidney to you to save you and your family. It is given Anonymously, but there is a way to communicate, if wanted. If you received this gift of life, would you want to send them a note to express your thoughts? I say this because I've heard nothing from them. It did everything I expected it would do for me, such as help me feel like a contributing member of society, and feeling like I'm earning my Disability payments. It's now a shame, as I only really need one, and I don't expect to hear from the next donation recipient.

Angry Dad

To the father that was at Lilly kazillys on Saturday afternoon, you proceeded to yell, swear, at the staff because your daughter got stung by a bee. It's an outdoor patio, if you were concerned, take the kids inside, and to swear in public like that in front of your kids is disgusting. Grow up.

White Oaks Ben Moss crew

While visiting London over Labour Day weekend, our family did some back to school shopping at White Oaks Mall. As my husband wandered away from the kids and I (sans cellphone), he completely lost us. Suddenly I received a picture text of my hubby at Ben Moss Jewelers, saying that he is looking for me. The women at the store and I had a good laugh over the ordeal. Thanks for being there and giving us something funny to remember of our shopping trip!

Bad service

My daughter and her friend stopped in at the mac's gas and variety in Ruthven to get gas for her car. After she finished fueling up she went in to pay and immediately was told to get to the back of the line (because it was busy) by Karen who was cashing people out.. While standing in line the lady in front of my daughter let her go ahead of her. Karen called my daughter up to pay and then proceeded to tell her in a very rude way that she could pay at the pump. After my daughter told her she was just paying 40 dollars for gas and that she preferred to pay inside. Karen replied rudely next time pay at the pump, even though that half the debit machines at the pumps do not work..

Superhero at the Brick

Today while shopping at the brick this afternoon, they had a hotdog stand with donations being made to help the sick kids foundation. While my son had been crying and very irritable it was time for us to leave. This young man in front of us all of a sudden makes a generous donation and turns around and hands my son a superhero teddy bear! Of course he stopped crying instantly. You made his day! You should be spotted for your kind heart and generosity to a great foundation! Thanks again and today you sir have been spotted!

Tecumseh Angel

While volunteering to sell corn at the corn booth under the Tecumseh water tower on behalf of Run for the Cure group, a Town of Tecumseh employee pulled up on the road to water the flower arrangements. The gentleman waved at me to come over & when I did he gave me a generous donation for the breast cancer survivors & did not want me to give him any corn. You have been spotted - what a sweet thing to do - so proud of Tecumseh residents!

Hard working ladies at Tim Hortons

I just want the owners of the Tim Hortons at Park and Goyeau to know they have awesome night staff. I come in on my lunch and see how hard your ladies work and want you to know. They are taking care of customers and they are trying to do the big cleaning. I worked at this store about 16 years ago and know how crazy it can be. So If the owner is Vicki and family still just want u to know the night ladies are awesome.
