Feb. 8

Orchids to

the local auto dealer’s parts department for righting a wrong from a satisfied customer!

the new Kind Car Wash with very modern, friendly staff, with free vacuum and supplies to use, a place I will revisit.

Eric at Positive Performance for fixing the oil leak that others could not, from a grateful lady.

Brandon at Menard’s for understanding with my return of the fireplace, from a grateful customer.

Megan at the Belmont for being so gracious and going out of her way getting me my dinner.

the person who found my cell phone at Target and returned it to the desk.

Onions to

frivolous lawsuits, causing neighbors who have limited funds to pay court costs and lawyer fees to defend themselves.

the federal elected official building a fence to protect the U.S. Capitol and his beach house but not one to protect our national border.

defaulting on our national debt and paying China an even higher rate on the treasury bonds they hold.

complaining about the single balloon of the current guy, while ignoring the three balloons of the former guy.

political speaker for making clandestine deals with the biggest threats to our country and placing them on vital committees to be made speaker after 15 tries.

member of the GOP for spouting ridiculous comments regarding the handling of the Chinese balloon, maybe they should first get the facts and listen to the military experts.

Happy Birthday to

Beverly Brown, from friends at Bethel Baptist Church.

Donna Kuhlman, from Pat, Mike, and family.
