Those of you who live in Central Ontario will have experienced a nasty snow storm this past weekend. We had an accumulation of about a foot and a half of fresh snow which arrived with white out conditions. I was glad we didn't have to go anywhere. I did have a medical appointment on Sunday but cancelled it as I wasn't feeling well. That, given the weather turned out to be a blessing. We still have some shovelling to do but, thanks to our regular plow guy and a neighbour who cleared a path to the chicken coup, we are in good shape.
We had to do some shopping today and when we got to the store, I noticed some new changes. The one store everyone waited in on long line for their turn at a checkout. I almost left but an employee told me that it was moving quickly. And it was. The second store had a different change. I always take my own bags to it as it has the proper counter space and I get my husband to join me so he can pack. That way it doesn't take a lot of time and hold up other customers. This time we weren't allowed to put our bags on the counter and the clerk suggested hubby get a second cart so he could keep the bags there for loading.
A minor inconvenience but another step toward keeping everyone safe.
I was really pleased to hear a lady that had followed me into the store thanking all the staff. We need to remember to do that. They are bearing the brunt of everyone's frustration and worry. A few words of thanks can make all the difference to them,
Blessings,
