Do You Dread This Conversation
Over Your Morning Coffee?
|
Mar 4, 2010 - So you're sitting there, sipping your morning Joe, trying to wake up and plan your strategy for the day. You mate looks up and says, "Honey, can we switch cars for the day, my oil needs to be changed, and I thought you could take it to the shop for me." You slowly lower your cup, look up with wrinkled brow and quivering lip, with your tongue pressed against your teeth, thinking, 'am I chopped liver? is my time less valuable than yours? are you that lazy?'. But, to keep the peace, you swallow hard you say, "I guess so, I'll try to fit it in to my schedule, somehow. Thanks to two local businesses, you have no reason dread that conversation, actually you'll be looking forward to it. Something to Talk About Day Spa is working with the New Gloucester Service Station to pamper YOU while you pamper you car's engine. For the month of March, for one low price, you can reward yourself either with a manicure or massage while your car gets an oil change. Click here for Details |

Please remember that most of these events were for great causes. The "Chocolate Lover's Tour" was to benefit the Libby Hill Trail Fund, and the SnoWolves Ice Fishing Derby and Snowmobile Fun Run were to benefit their high school scholarship. Those wishing to support the causes, in spite of Mother nature can visit the Libby Hill website or the SnoWolves web site to find out how to make a donation. |
