Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
I took my boys to lunch and the dollar store after their Dr's appointment this morning and my 10 month old was fussing so I carried him while pushing the stroller. After paying I was getting ready to walk out but struggling to get through to the door and out of the way. I appologized to the lady behind me for being in the way and to my surprise she stopped and offered to help me get my stroller out. So to the awesome lady who gave me a hand pushing my stroller out of Dollarama at McDougall and Tecumseh around noon today (Sept.4). Thank you so much your kindness and extra set of hands were greatly appreciated. You definitely made this Mom's day! It may seem small but the fact that you took the time to help out a complete stranger was genuinely appreciated. Thanks again!
To the man who gave me a 7 cent off per liter coupon at the gas station on the corner of Tecumseh Road and Banwell,
I just want to say thank you so much! Every bit helps when it comes to money and your kind gesture was not unappreciated and it really put a smile on my face. Keep being a nice person!
Signed,
The girl in the white Sebring
Thank you to the woman who bought my iced coffee at McDonalds on Pillette and Wyandotte around 11:45am. This is the first time this has happened to me and it made my day!!! I will pay it forward! Thank you again, you have been SPOTTED!!! :)
My friend and I had gone to Applebee's to meet up for dinner. My friend has been through some hardships as of late. After our meal was finished and we asked for the bill, the waiter informed us that a gentleman paid for it but wanted to remain anonymous. Apparently he travels quite a bit and patrons the restaurant every few months during his passing by. I myself have done many random acts of kindness but this was the first that I was able to experience it first hand by a stranger. What an awesome feeling! Thank you kind stranger for making my friend and I's evening! Just the act itself will have lasting warmth in our hearts.

Three great things I experienced today :
1) A lady said I love your tie dye dress , it looks beautiful on you which made my day .
2) I got to see my friend Tanya Ulian Robinson and she gave me a book on St Clair College to keep .
3) I didn't know Lauzon 10 bus ended already at Tecumseh Mall . A lady by the name of Karrah called a cab for me and made me put on her jacket because I was cold . We sat down and talked to each other until the taxi came . Since I am always the one to help others every single day ; It was nice to see a wonderful gesture like that happen to me . I will always be grateful for that and I won't take it for granted .
Now for those who take life for granted or cause drama and pain or complain about life ; Look around you & how you can help somebody else out whether at a bus stop grocery store, rescue center , anywhere These small acts of kindness we need more of . I am going to always try my best to help people and animals out everyday because it is that important to me ;and yes I do I have disabilities but I never let it stop me from doing what I am meant to do and that is being a good person. & lt;3 & lt;3
To the men working sanitation on my street this Wednesday morning:
When you came to collect our waste, you were so friendly to my little girl, waving and honking. Thank you so much... She looks forward to seeing the truck come by each week, but today she's been talking about you non-stop and asking when the "big truck come back"?
Thank you for making her day a little more exciting!
I was sitting one afternoon back in July by the Edwin building on ouellette having a coffee with a young man I've been working with for over a year now. He has been through many struggles in his life with substance use, criminal charges and mental health issues. He was talking about turning his life around and making positive changes and better decisions. This woman was smoking outside the building, probably taking her break and over heard our conversation. It probably wasn't the best place to talk about his issues due to privacy but it felt like the right time to have a "heart to heart". This woman apologized for interrupting and provided some encouraging and supportive words to him. She said to him that everything I was saying was right and that he could do anything he put his mind to. I was extremely blown away by her courage to "butt in", most people are quick to judge and give nasty looks but this woman was extremely supportive and sweet to us. He thanked her for her kind words and so did I. To this woman, you have made a difference to him and I. I'll never forget that moment when a complete stranger turned into a social worker for 5 minutes.
