Hugs: A very Huge hug to my neighbours at Jim Smith Lake who have helped me tremendously since my husband passed close to seven years ago. These wonderful and generous people have helped with driving me, plowing my driveway and shovelling deck and sidewalk throughout the winter, checking on me periodically to make sure I’m OK, fixing minor issues around my house, and letting me babble on at different times. I really appreciate them for all they do for me.
Hugs: To Parkland school for a great fundraiser. I received the freshest and healthiest poinsettia I have ever bought and am very pleased with the quality and the great idea for fund raising.
