Today's Question(s): If you were going to write a letter of appreciation this week, who would you send it to and why? I would send it to the very nice young woman who works at our local book shop. I bought some colored markers from her the other day, but I later discovered that many of them were dried out or ran out of ink quickly. Sol I decided to return them, but somehow I had lost the receipt. Despite this she graciously refunded my money in cash AND gave me a new set of markers (which we checked to make sure they were OK). This is why I like dealing with local merchants rather than big chains.
