Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
Today in a rush to get home and get our families Christmas dinner started, after work I made a stop at Joseph to get a few things. I get to the cashier have everything rang in.... and then I am searching for my debit card... then it dawned on me while out yesterday at another Christmas dinner we had made a stop on the way home, and I had left my card in my dressy coat.
I was telling the cashier to keep all my groceries and I would come back with my card, and then this voice behind me said that if I forgot my card she would pay for it, and asked me if it was ok. I was hesitant as I had never had anyone do that for me before, she paid for my groceries and I couldn't thank her enough! Nadine if you see this now all of Windsor knows that there are still good people out there and you have a heart of gold! Thank you again!
While I was doing some shopping is Tecumseh mall people where handing out little envelopes with Tim's gift cards in them. What a nice gestures and a simple way to say merry Christmas to the community.
On Christmas evening, my husband and I went for a short visit to our daughter's house. On the way home on George Avenue, a car was heading straight for us in our lane. We blared the horn, hit the brakes but the large white sedan didn't slow down. We had to veer over and jumped the curb to narrowly avoid a head-on collision. After coming off the curb the other car swerved back in his lane and kept going. A warning light came on and our tire flattened on our low-profile, custom tire. We were able to limp home, which was not far, with the four-ways on. The tire is ripped so it has to be replaced. So it's going to cost us at least $500 for a new tire, front-end alignment, new rims and pray nothing happened to the chassis. Thanks a lot and Merry Christmas to the jerk who caused an accident in what looked like a white Crown Victoria.
I would just like to wish the wonderful delicatessen lady at Mr. Meats on the West end a very Merry Christmas.
Yesterday my husband went to get a few last minute items. One of them was lunch meat to make quick snacks for today while I make our Christmas dinner feast.
When he came home he was moved by something you had said to him. You said " I just wanted to say thank you " He was puzzled and asked why. You responded that he was the first person to smile all day and that everyone shopping was very cross and not in the holiday spirit.
I just want to wish you and your family a very merry Christmas. I am sorry that the rest of the shoppers were in such states of mind that they forgot the simplicity of politeness. No matter what time of year or how busy people are they have no right to be so "ugly" in spirit. I hope everyone after my husband smiled at you as you are always so pleasant and kind.

Since I no longer live in Windsor, I just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!! :)

The guy that moved out of Windsor in April 2013
This is to the kind lady from Riberty Rd., who found my phone in the Shopper's Drug Mart parking lot this morning @ Tecumseh Rd & Howard Ave. Thank you so much for returning my phone. Our small gift of $20 does not portray the importance of what you did for me!! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You have been spotted!
Random act of Kindness. So I had time to stop at Tim Horton's (Chandler and Tecumseh) at about 9:30am, to pick up some timbits for visitors and staff to my office today (yes, it is a social service industry). Large box was $8.50. A nice person in front of me paid for my order. So nice of them. In return I ended up giving the staff at Tims a nice tip.
Thankful for the Santa in front of me. If you read this, just know that your gesture was really appreciated. Thank you very much. I wish I was more attentive to who you were.
