RAVE to the employee at the Safeway in the Fairwood Shopping Center who found my debit card and turned it in to customer service. That made what had been a very frustrating day into a chance to feel grateful and relieved. I love that Safeway because the majority of the staff are hardworking and always friendly. Cheers to honest, helpful folks.

RANT to dogs that do their business on my plants. I recently read that there are more dogs than children in Seattle. Guess this is the trend and I can understand why. A lot less responsibility and you don’t have to send dogs to college! One thing kids have on dogs though: They go in a toilet or diaper while dogs go on people’s grass, bushes and trees. Wish they would stop going on mine. It’s killing them!
