IS THE PRICE OF GAS REAL LIFE RIGHTNOW?!?!
To the man I married many years ago, who has been an amazing husband and wonderful father to our two children!!! .Tomorrow is just for you " baby! " ♥ ..oh we need to talk ;)
Im a single mother of one, I just finished putting myself through college to make life better for him and I. I recently left a relationship that went bad to start fresh with my little guy but now I'm finding myself needing a little bit of help to get started. I'm looking to do any work to come up with first and last month's rent and things I need for in the house as well. Donations of anything would be greatly appreciated. I'm a responsible mother and every dollar I ever make goes to things my son needs or things for us to live, I don't drink or party, I barely buy myself anything and I really don't like asking for help but I've realized lately sometimes people need to ask for help.
Come on out to our park wide yard sale today and tomorrow. Luciers estates, Mcgregor
To the unknown person dressed in scrubs that delivered a subway giftcard for my mother at A.L.S.O. which is a group home for people with brain injuries and physical disabilities on Sandwich St. West. Your gesture and generosity is much appreciated.
so after my neighbour mowed my grass for me today (Ty for that btw my brand new lawnmower broke).. I get a knock at the door. thinking it was my neighbour, I answered it (I never answer the door if I don't know who it is, my people always call first lol)..
so it's this guy from OEG and he says I have to let him into my house because ontario is doing an energy efficiency study and he needs to check to make sure my furnace/ central air isn't spitting CO2 back into my hose basically. he also said the province was crediting money for any new equipment I might need at no cost to myself.
I don't let any solicitors in. ever. but I gotta give this guy credit. when I asked him specifically if he worked for the government of ontario doing an official survey, he (without even flinching) said yes. when I asked him if I was required by law to let him in to check my furnace, he again replied yes. aside from my general paranoia the only thing that seemed out of place was that I'd recognized the logo they were using as one tht had been used by another door to door scammer years prior. when I said I wasn't going to let him in because my dogs would eat him, he backed off a little bit. asked if I could lock them up but I told him my rotty opens all doors and moves about the house as free as a rabid bird (at least I told the truth). he suddenly didn't want in so bad and said he'd come back another day. i said the dogs would still be here and off he went. called union gas and did some googling and confirmed it was indeed a scam. they are not from ontario government and they are absolutely trying to sell u something and you are not required to let them in.
also found an article from Windsor star here:

it's funny how you can go from meeting someone who wants to help you out of the kindness of their heart to someone who will boldly lie to your face, misrepresent themselves and try to force their way into your home all in a matter of minutes. I really worry about newcomers to this country and older generations who may be more trusting so please let your family/ neighbours know in case someone shows up at their door.
and thank god for hungry-looking lapdog Rottweilers ;)

Happy fathers day to an amazing adopted father and father inlaw, hope its amazing and to all the dads out there :)
I like many who were not happy with the candidates , that decided to go into the polls and decline their vote, but remain part of the process have been duped!!!!!!!!. Although it was a declined ballot my understanding was that my voice would have been heard..... I have it on good authority that the individuals working the polls were told to accept the declined ballot and place them into an envelope which was
done in front of me .....only to be tossed in the garbage at nights end. I made my decision to DECLINE my vote based on " no confidence " of anyone in the parties but still wanted to be apart of the process ..my understanding was that this would be a way for the government to see a number of people were not confident ....I guess next time when I have no confidence I just won't vote !
