Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
I was at Stop sign about to turn right at County 42 but was waiting for a white Ford SUV to pass by. The pick up truck behind me couldn't wait and honked his horn. Of course, I turned super slow as I was teaching my son how to drive. But then he sped up (where the turning left lane is at the airport), tried to pass me and I ended up going to the side road with gravel. Good thing , there is no ditch or I would have fallen into it with my two grown up children. Way to set an example to new drivers!!!
While at my vet's office in East Windsor, I observed a woman and a young child leaving, getting into a vehicle with 2 dogs. One dog looked to be like it could be the mother dog and the other, a puppy under a year old, maybe. The child, maybe six or seven years old had the young dog on a leash. As the back car door slid open , I was horrified to see the child yank the dog by the neck, like it was a ragdoll, stuffed animal, suitcase, that she had to get in the vehicle. Absolutely no regard for this poor young dog, poor baby actually. Please teach your children how to safely handle and behave around animals or don't get them!
Just had to get some drywall and 2 X 4's at Home Hardware. $50 to be delivered 1 Km. The owner of Dayus Roofing overheard us and said he would throw it in his truck.
He even helped bring it in the garage and wouldn't take my $20 I offered.
To the couple in a White Jeep that I interacted with at Canadian Tire on Walker Road and at the intersection near Homesense. I tried to hand you a note in the Canadian Tire parking lot to let you know that you nearly killed me when you ran the red light at Petro, but you refused to take it. When I pulled up to you at the intersection, I yelled to let you know that you almost killed me, and you asked what light and gave me a confused look. If it truly was not you at the light, I sincerely apologize. I started to second guess myself and wondered whether I had the wrong car. If that is the case, I am so sorry for startling you like that.
My son just graduated high school this year2020 With all that's happening in the world , you have to know that there's us still kindness and love for everyone!
Here's a card we got in the mail with a note and 5$= I million $ from a stranger passing by who saw a Graduation banner out in the lawn in front of our house
I want to thank you so much Sandra!! You made our day and you taught my kids a valuable lesson that kindness is everywhere and there always good people.
We will do the same!! Let's keep this chain of kindness going!!!
I would to first off say to the lady who came through the drive thru at the McDonald's on Manning Rd., if you were already having a bad day I am sorry that you were, and if you weren't then you should be ashamed.
The debit/ credit was down and not just at this specific location, it was posted at the drive thru before entering the lane and at the door before entering the store, and yet you continued to drive through, and up to the speak where you then yelled at the employee on the other end about how "they should know if the machine is working or not for credit, and now you are stuck in a line you can't get out of" despite already being told that was not working, and being apologized too.
Well I was that person and I'm not ok with the attitude you gave me. I have dealt with rude customers before, and especially during this horrible Covid-19 situation, as I have been working since this all started.
I however can not control what an electronical device can or can not do, we were all trying our best today despite the circumstances, and you not only yelled at me but my manager too, who also did not deserve the treatment you dished out.
Life happens and some things are out of our control...this was one of them.
I had to get this off my chest. Thank you.
To the house in the 1800 block of Westcott with the 2 dogs that run the neighbourhood, your dogs almost got hit on Tecumseh Rd. I saw them running and went out to get them and bring them back as well as another neighbour, only to be greeted by your son? or son's friend who was screaming to a kid and the dogs to Get the F inside. I know this is a regular occurrence and I know the Humane Society and I believe police have been involved for the one dog going after a girl. PS, your bigger dog isn't that friendly and should be watched better. Also, the boys at the door we're very rude to another neighbour when she told them they need to clean up the dog poop on her grass from your dog....That is responsible pet ownership! 🤦♀️
