@AmtrakAlerts Any updates?

[NWS Portland @NWSPortland]

🔥🌫 Some of you are noticing smoke in the #PDX metro area, mainly due to a fire at a lumber mill in the Longview area. Here is thermal imagery, clearly detecting the fire from space.

It's a good idea to close your windows if you're sensitive to smoke.

Kids know it’s Pi Day. Facebook knows it’s Pi Day. Guess who seems not to? @SharisPies in my area. Every one had a line out date door and one person working on Pi Day. 😳 🤷‍♀️ #PieHunting

I had a rough encounter at my local @MichaelsStores this week and contacted corporate via DM. Such amazing customer service at the corporate and district level. Huge shout out to the social media team and district mgr Dean! I’m back to loving Michael’s. 😍❤️😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Anyone else doing the sugar-water shuffle today?

[Laurel Rogers @laurelrogers]

Predictable and, therefore, preventable.

@JoAnn_Stores But instead let’s be loud and public and warn what an abject scam this program is. Buyer beware!

[Laurel Rogers @laurelrogers]

@JoAnn_Stores claims they’re like Netflix in their billing. Well, actually, steaming services prorate their refunds. And I since I canceled Creativebug on the last day to do so, seems that proration should be 100% refund.

Delicious lunch, inspiring convo with @HealthShareOR, @ahnw, @AdventistHealth Tillamook and @MCMCHealth at @WeAreHCNW conference.
