Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings all around the world
To the man who works at the University of Windsor CAW parking lot booth, I just want to say thank you for always being so pleasant and brightening my day!
A friend of mine shared on her Facebook that The Windsor Youth Centre is in desperate need of re-stocking their pantry. I didn't even know The Windsor Youth Centre existed until today. I'm sure many people like us, donate to larger organizations, but aren't aware of some of these smaller organizations as well. After going on The Windsor Youth Centre website and reading about what they do, it's obvious how important they are to some of the youth in our city. I thought Spotted in Windsor would be a great way to spread the word for them.
The Windsor Youth Centre information is below:
Lots of youth depend on portable snacks for breakfast and lunch and, it's getting to the point where we're going to have to start telling them no. Please help us out by dropping off some snack foods etc., to 1321 Wyandotte St. E. or by donating here: http:/ / www.thewindsoryouthcentre.org/ donate-online/
The Windsor Youth Centre website also has a list of things they are in need of.
So I've been crushing on this guy that takes the 1C bus every morning. He gets on at the terminal around 8:50am going west bound. The bus is always so packed that he doesn't really notice me. Don't wanna sound stalker like but today he was wearing a greenish brownish hat with gloves and a black trench coat. I highly doubt he would ever seen this but if he does just know that there is someone out there who thinks you're pretty sexy.
On Monday night around 8:45pm I heard a quiet knock at my door. When I answered I was very surprised to see a middle aged woman from the Kidney Foundation asking for donations. I respect the need to fundraise for worthy charities however women walking the streets alone in the dark knocking on doors doesn't seem like the right way to do it.
She must have sensed my disappointment and upset because she said she was just doing her job when I politely said that I was not interested in donating.
I am sorry for making her feel as though she needed to defend her actions, however knocking on doors that late in the evening to ask for money is not only dangerous but its unsettling for the person hearing the knock.
Kidney Foundation - You've been spotted for putting the safety of your volunteers/ employees at risk!
This wonderful kids group invited LeeLee Hats to come and teach them how to loom. For two hours this group made hats and dedicated their Sunday at St. Andrews Church in LaSalle. Such an inspiration.
I went to Walmart yesterday morning to get my passport picture taken. The debit machine was down and I only had $16 in my wallet, the cost of the passport photo was $20.35. The gentleman behind me in line volunteered to pay the rest for me. I thought that was the sweetest thing ever! I had shopping to do and the lady said I could pay when I was done, so I thanked that man but did not accept his offer. I went shopping and the cashier had on bunny ears and was super friendly, also the woman at the portrait studio was very friendly and funny, all in all a great trip to the Eastside Walmart! Also, I had to go to the passport office after that and it was very crowded. They have a table at the back where can fill out paperwork and there were 3 people there filling out their paperwork so I waited, 2 people left and took the pens that are provided, so I asked the third person if I could use her pen, she said it was her pen so I told her I would find her when I was done filling out my paperwork and give her the pen back. She agreed but was finished before I was and came back over to me to tell me to keep the pen! What a sweet lady. I left the pen so that others could use it. Sorry this is so long but I knew Windsor people were great and friendly and yesterday they proved it for me!
To the guy that came into our Subway location on Lauzon and Riverside today, I'm sorry your card got declined, we saw how upset you got as you were leaving and decided to pay for it ourselves, and trust me that smile was worth it! Hope you enjoyed the sub!
