Canadian Geese on Lauzon Parkway

Had my faith in humanity restored just a little bit today. (April 29th)

Going home at lunch time came up on traffic congestion on Lauzon Parkway near Tecumseh road. Six lanes of traffic snarled in both directions. When I was close enough to see what was going on I saw some motorists had taken it upon themselves to stop the traffic and help escort a pair of Canadian geese and their babies across the road. In the stopped cars, no one was honking or trying to run them over as I would have expected. Might be hope for humankind yet. As for the people that stopped the traffic to help out the geese. True heros in my books. I for one appreciated your efforts. You'll probably never see this... but Thank You!

Best nurse/ drs on the 2nd floor at met hospital

Sunday April 26th 2015 around 8:20 pm my water broke at home so needless to say we rushed over to the hospital (2nd floor) to be welcomed by the clerk when we got off the elevator .. mind u a very lovely lady, she quickly gets me into triage before we were all floating away lol . As soon as I get change and lay into bed 2 more nurses r now taking care of me ajd they call the on call Dr to come in Dr.suga to talk to me not only did my water brake but the baby had a bowel movement in the womb and that could be very dangerous .. Dr.suga explained to me different risks potential problems and then told me I was admitted we were going to have a baby together tonight . They then put me in too a wheel chair and brought me to my bed at east where I now have a nurse named Amanda . Now this nurse is probably one of the best nurses have ever had . Me and the baby was her only concern she went over and beyond to take care of us and with all the ups and downs that happened all the scary things that kept repeating over and over she kept strong and tried to keep me there also she kept me out of a panic .. outstanding work Amanda u should be so proud of yourself and the way u hold it together for patients .. around 6:45 am Dr.suga came in sat at my bedside rubbing my leg telling me a c section is needed for a healthy safe baby , so needless to say another group of hands down the best nurse arrived to assist .. moving on to my stay and my day and night time nurses for the 2 days AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING they showed me how to breast feed they have shown me lil tricks here and there .. honestly because of these nurses and Dr it has been one of the best stays I have ever had here at met.. Thank u to all that were involved with the safe arrival of my baby girl savannah

help me say thank you

Today was my terrible horrible no good very bad day. I knew i should have hidden under the blankets, shut out the world and not leave my bed. I didn't have that option. So I faced the day, took the knocks and tried to suck up what came. At 7pm I went to pick up my very tired teen from a track event. My car, my like me, ran out of gas. I was stuck right by the macdonalds in Lasalle. When my son and i tried to push the car it would roll backward into traffic. We stopped in to the restaurant to use the phone and when we returned you were by our car. You helped us push the car to the near by gas station, and line it up with the pump. The thanks I said to you and your wife seems so insufficient. Your moment of kindness gave my terrible day a safe and happy ending. I hope some one here knows who you and your wife are, because i'd like to say thank you again

Awesome Dad

Sitting at Maryvale, it's 140pm. To the dad playing ice cream shop with the little pet shop people, good for you for taking the time to play with your daughter while you wait. It was so nice to hear you playing and having fun with her while you wait. You are a great dad.

Jurassic Park Tales...

This morning (April 27th), my husband and myself went to the Lumberjack restaurant for breakfast. We were sitting next to this gentleman and his 2 sons. They were delightful little guys, and we couldn't help but overhear the 1 little man going on and on about Jurassic park and Indiana Jones. He came up with a terrific idea for a new movie involving a combination of the 2 movies :) We recently had a terrible house fire, and we're displaced (along with our 4 children) for the next 2-6 months. We've had a rough patch (nothing we can't get through) and I've found myself frowning quite a bit lately. This little man brightened my day, made us smile and laugh, and reminded me of a great couple of movies to rent tonight for the kids to watch :) I complimented the Dad (obviously he's a pretty good one) and bought their breakfast for them :) I hope you enjoyed your breakfast and the surprise when it came time to pay your bill...you made our day a whole lot happier...just being the sweet family you are :)

Good Karma! Found Cell Phone Returned!

I wanted to give a special "Spotted" shout out to the lady named Jen who found my cell phone in a cab Saturday evening. She took the Vet's Cab right after I did, found the cell phone and took it home with her saying she didn't always trust the cab drivers (I agree). She called the number listed under Dad in my phone and he was able to contact my boyfriend's cell phone. I called my cell phone and she happily gave me her address and I went to pick up my phone. I offered to give her a $20 finder's fee but she refused to take it saying this was good karma for her. I completely agree! Nice to see people actually doing good deeds and not just taking things that don't belong to them.

Thank you Jen, you made my day and saved me a lot of money :) You have been SPOTTED!

YOU MADE MY DAY!

To whomever was ahead of me at around 9 am this morning in the Tim Horton's drive thru on Ojibway Parkway
I stopped to pick up a soup combo for my son who wasn't feeling well. He was already at work. His last day today as he is getting married in Jamaica on Saturday and we are leaving tomorrow!!
I just left to do errands and wanted to drop off the soup for him.
I drove up to the window to pay and the young man smiled and said 'Not to worry it was already paid for!"
I thought I heard wrong and went to give him the money and he smiled and said again " It has been taken care of by the car that was ahead of you"
Well I didn't know what to say as was just so surprised, just made me cry
Nothing like this has ever happened to me before
Just so you know, I am just starting the first day of my vacation today and am already over the moon with the wedding of my son and you made it even better!!!!
YOU MADE MY DAY......AND FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART.....THANK YOU!!! Xo

WOW Mobile (tec mall) wow'd me!!

Usually dealing with phone stores is such a bummer and annoyance. Especially because the employees barely have phone knowledge. I was so surprised when browsing at Wow Mobile in Tecumseh mall with my brother by the level of customer service. The employees gave us honest answers and we're not shoving brands down our throats. Even told my brother to shop around letting him know when their sale is done. When he told me he was going back to buy the phone, I came along. Sure enough, luck was on my side (or my brothers aha) Nick set the phone up and even made some good jokes along the way. If it was my phone I would have asked him to be my first contact. Hopefully when my contract is up next year Nick will still be working there ;) a girl can hope right? @tecumsehmall @WOWMobile
