A wintery Hugs and Slugs

Hugs: To Meraki Automotive Repair. Awesome service and integrity every single time. Awesome service. God bless your business with continued success and prosperity.

Hugs: To Ryan from Jacksons Heating! Great technician and great gentleman as well. Thank you Ryan. God bless you!

Slugs: The city insists on full payment of its services, but for some reason, only delivers partial performance. For example: the recent snowfall has left our streets a mess. The snow is still easily removed but nothing is happening on our neighborhood roads. Past practice has been to wait till the slush freezes then the plows come around numerous times with salt to try unsuccessfully to scrape it off the roads. Maybe Santa will bring us a better cost effective and a more livable solution for us.

Hugs: Great big hugs to Bridge Interiors for being so helpful regarding the purchase of a recliner bed. It was a very stressful day and everything was handled so smoothly. Hugs also to the 2 delivery men who arrived just after my husband arrived home from the hospital. They set things up efficiently and throughly. Thank you!

Hugs: Of gratitude to all the helpful, good neighbours in town who are so kind as to go the extra step and clear other neighbour's snow. Every household has a story and some of us are just finding it so challenging to clear our walks. Thank you for your thoughtfulness.

Hugs: Huge hugs to the many people who helped in locating my wayward partner at South Star Trails on Sunday evening, November 24. Everyone was kind and more than helpful, going out of their way to search, calling friends to stand by to search. Thank you to the RCMP who responded quickly and were very reassuring. Special thanks to Katharine, Stephen and Lori, Nathan and partner and John and a big thank you to Lena (sorry—in the confusion I lost your phone number).

Hugs: To the City. I know that when we have a huge dump of snow it is hard for everyone here and sometimes the plowing doesn’t get done in a timely matter according to a lot of folks. I would just like to say thanks for removing the middle lane snow piles on the majority of the roads I drove to work on this morning.
