Wolf Within

Busy Busy, so I'll start with the good news first.
I was out and about today, off in Nanton when my friend's car broke down. fine by me really, I love to rummage in their local thrift store for things the rescue needs.
While there, I chatted with the manager who I don't get to see very often.
In the process she began pulling out blankets, pillows, rags, small animal cages, a water feeder, a waterbed heating pad, 6-7 flannel sheets and all kinds of stuff!!! I couldn't stop saying "thank you".... it was not only unexpected, it was such a pleasant surprise. I'm sure if the furbabes could say thanks too, they would! And while the car still isn't fixed and my friend stayed in Nanton over night, it's packed! And I mean jam packed with stuff. I can hardly wait till tomorrow - I'll be hitting the laundry mat to do some laundry and the crew will be comf as a buf tomorrow night with all new stuff. Wow! That topped my week!

Then later in the eve, I was with my daughter at the laundry mat when we met up with someone who rented a store I've been trying to rent. There's an apartment upstairs and the downstairs use to be a dentist's office, so there's cubicals and various usable rooms that I could certainly put to good use and live upstairs.
It"s right on main st so i figure why not get right out there in public view and start to socialize and get everything out in the open
One of my plans is to open a pet supply store that supports the rescue.
I was told that the pet groomer that was renting it, tried to bring in food supplies, collars and other related items and was stopped by the town government. Why? Because the Home Hardware 3 stores away sells "some" pet food and some collars. hmmmmmm. some pet food gives me enough reason to request a meeting with counsel because i can"t foresee why a hardware store with tons of products can be hindered by someone who specializes with one item that they sell in an area that holds a population of six thousand people
looks like i best get prepared and get me notes in order
i can"t see how a store that sells a variety of products could be put out of business by someone who specializes in pet related items
i figure people will shop where they like to and if other merchants can"t handle that then it"s time to get their poop in a group
right?
oh and i"ll be asking the pet groomer to come in as well and the funny part of all that is< the vet"s office is across the street and he brings in a pet groomer as well but nothign was said about that
i need to get the store first and i"ll worry about the rest later>>>>>>>>
chow for now
