This evening I was at Wal-Mart picking up pop for an event, as I was waiting in line the couple in front of me had many various items all separated for individual bills all lined up on the conveyer. I overheard them talking to the cashier and mention they needed individual bills for reimbursements.. they were foster parents. As they cashed out, the man appologized for the long wait almost each time they finished a sale.. I smiled and said it was no problem and no rush at all.. What I should have said was what amazing selfless people you are! It's wonderful to see people making the world a better place, and I'm sorry I didn't get to tell you that! I hope you see this and know it takes special people like you to make a difference and a positive impact, you are doing a great thing! :)

Seen this tonight in the Wal Mart parking lot in the East Side

So I had the day from hell, work , my dog had emergency surgery running in circles all day getting my kids from place to place and I stopped by the dollar store on central to buy a lock for my sons football gear. He was so excited to get it that day (grade 9) and I forgot my bank card on my kitchen table. I had zero dollars in my purse and the cashier could clearly see the frustration in my face and all she said was don't worry I understand and she pulled out her wallet and paid for my sons lock. It's something so little as that, that honestly turned my whole day around ... Thank you from this frazzled burning the wick at both ends mom and trust me I will pay it forward :)

I just had to share, sitting out on my balcony at Lauzon Towers.
Two vehicles pulled up and parked under the protected entrance to the building. Vehicle#1 had a scooter that could be seen in the back of a truck. Vehicle#2 had a disabled lady by the name of Barbara, who lives in the building. Apparently this lady had a Dr's appt. on wyandotte and prado close to ice cream cone parlor, when the pouring rain started coming down by the buckets, her scooter malfunctioned and she was stranded under a tree. A kind mother was picking her daughter up from
the ice cream cone parlor made arrangements with the ice cream place owner to lock up, and load up the scooter in her vehicle while the lady went with the mother and daughter, and made sure she was safe back at the apartment. Barbara was truly blessed to have met her guardian Angels today.

A giant crack shook my house and when I looked out the window my tree was gone. Missed our van by inches!

Hopefully everyone was safe during that nasty storm. Any other aftermath photos??

If anyone in the Lauzon road area is missing a white shihtzu puppy, my husband found her wandering around the apartments beside Average Joes, and with the help of a good samaritin, was able to catch her and took her over to Lauzon vet clinic, who in turn was going to turn her over to humane society.

Wednesday September 2, 2015 @ approx. 12:30 p.m. @ McDonalds on College & Huron Line. Being my typical self I held the outer door for my mother and nephew and then a few strangers (about 7 lol). My nephew held the inside door open for them. Everyone acknowledged the doors were held open for them (which doesn't always happen) Even a guy talking on his phone smiled and nodded a "Thanks". My mother and nephew even teased me about waiting for people from Toronto because some were not "right at the door". So when we ordered 3 drinks and an ice cream cone the same smiling and nodding guy speaks up and says he'll pay for our order! Well colour me surprised; I always believe in paying it forward and it was a special feeling to be a recipient. Of course after a round of Thank you's he said pay it forward; and we joked about it being inexpensive because hey 3 people we could've ordered pricey meals (haha). I hollered thanks again as you walked out the door; and I watched you get into your dark grey Chrysler 200 with the tinted windows and drive away up Huron Line. I know you had a "good feeling" smile when you left and so did we. We bragged to everyone else we talked to that day; just so others know Windsor still has some very AWESOME people. Thanks again kind sir and hopefully you will be the next recipient of a kind act.
