Here are your kicks and kisses for the week of April 26!
- Kisses to Keili for all the work she has done keeping our community up to date with her articles. Can’t wait to read her future projects!
- Kicks to event organizers who choose not to start an event on time in order to wait for latecomers who may or may not show up.
- Kisses to all the ACU nurses at the hospital for their expertise and kindness.
- A huge thank you to the staff and doctors at Cowrie Medical Clinic for giving us the opportunity to see a doctor on Saturdays instead of having to go to emerge. Try going to a walk-in in Calgary and waiting up to five hours. We are well looked after here.
- Kisses to Harendra from Howe Sound Pulp and Paper who found my wallet on the sidewalk. Saved me so much work!
- A cappuccino full of kisses to the two gentlemen who helped me up when I had a fall at Tim Horton’s.
- Kicks to the drivers who park too close to the red fire hydrant along Ocean Avenue, Sechelt, between Hackett Park and the Greenecourt apartment building. You could and should get a ticket under fire regulations.
- Kudos to Simon K, Dan and Ty and all the crew for a fabulous reno. All your skills are much appreciated.
- Kisses to the lady who found my dog cHoncHos’ emergency seizure medicine in Lower G and came all the way to our Upper G address to return it for him. A much appreciated, kind and literally life saving act. Thank you!
- Kicks to the parents who drive with their small children in the front seat of the vehicle. It’s not safe!
- Kicks to dog owners who keep their dogs clipped in, but then refuse to hold the leash! That is NOT what “on leash” means and you know it.
- Kisses to the folks at Splatters Paint & Decorating for helping me pick out office colours.
- Kisses to the Earth Day organizers – what a great event.
