HUGS: To the woman who baled me out at the hardware store when I left my wallet at home.
SLUGS: Would really appreciate if people started being responsible dog owners and picking up after their pets. Lakeside and Art Gibbon parks are riddled with dog poop and it’s quite sad and gross.
SLUGS: Big slimy slugs to the Nelson gas stations that continue to gouge us. Went to Trail-Fruitvale, where the price was $154.7 and Nelson was still $169.9. Disgusting!
HUGS: To those feeling fear. Barricading ourselves inside camps, whether left or right, is fear-driven behaviour.
HUGS: To the Nelson Police in their quick response to a possible lost child. The officers were also very compassionate and supportive.
SLUGS: To loitering and smoking outside the Royal Bank entrance. Walking through the cloud of marijuana smoke is impossible to avoid.
HUGS: To Kurama Sushi for their fantastic fresh and delicious sushi, but also for their genuine kindness and warmth. Thanks to Taka, Yuki and their staff!
HUGS: To the staff at Kootenay Lake Hospital for helping those in need with professionalism and compassion. You are an asset to our community and we see your hard work! Thanks for the wheelchair rides.
