Kisses and Kicks for the week of February 17!
- Kicks to those who push pet dogs in grocery carts and claim they are service dogs.
- Kisses to the man in the white truck who intervened on Mason Road Saturday afternoon when a very large stray dog charged towards me while I was running. I was so grateful you arrived when you did and I am thankful for your help! You went above and beyond to keep the dog with you at your truck so I could get away!
- Kisses to young Jack and his kind and thoughtful daddy Russ who took the time to check my oil and fill my windshield wiper reservoir at the Shell on Cowrie, Friday afternoon, Feb. 10. From a grateful senior who misses the good old days when garages offered courtesy services!
- A grocery store full of kisses to Caroline at SuperValu who always goes above and beyond with a smile. Caroline, you truly know the meaning of customer service. Well done!
- Kisses to the always friendly staff at JamJar.
- Many kisses to the Rotary Club for the lovely cards and chocolates gifted to the Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Shop yesterday – a very thoughtful gesture that was much appreciated by the volunteers!
