Happy Thanksgiving from LIHHS. Need a new toilet?
Nov 28, 2024
Lopez Island Home & Hospice Support wishes you a very happy Thanksgiving filled with love, laughter and cherished memories.

At this moment you are probably focused on what will go into your stomachs later today. Let us be the first to say we hope your turkey is a grand success, with all its delectable fixings!

We’re also here with a sober reminder that what goes in must eventually pass through, and perhaps -- as we face the first of many festive feasts -- this is a good time to ask yourself: is your bathroom ready to handle the strain of the holiday season? If not, we are pleased to say that the LIHHS Jingle Bell auction has you covered!

Start with your toilet. Is it looking shabby? Refresh your bathroom experience with a new Toto Entrada toilet, including installation and removal of your old toilet, generously donated by Mike Hobi.

Next, consider your septic system. Do you sense that it’s getting dangerously close to capacity? Well, don’t wait for your crowd of holiday revelers to push things over the limit! Lighten the load with a septic pump-out of up to 900 gallons, kindly contributed by Jason Kramer at A1 Septic.

All that nourishes us must eventually return to the earth, cycling back to give life to new growing things. Nobody knows this better than the composters extraordinaires at Midnight’s Farm. Revitalize your own vegetable patch, or delight the gardener in your life, with a yard of compost donated by David Bill.

We hope we haven’t been too crass on this solemn holiday, but someone has to think of these things, and it’s now LESS THAN TEN DAYS TO THE DECEMBER 7th JINGLE BELL CELEBRATION! Do remember that these hot items have a “buy now” price and they go quickly, so arrive early or enlist a friend to help you bid and avoid disappointment.

We can’t wait to see you there. You can still GET YOUR TICKETS by calling (360) 468-4446! ’Til then, may your gatherings be joyful, your turkey moist, and your digestion untroubled!
The turkey gets all the glory...
...but the toilet is the real unsung hero of any holiday gathering.
