End of August

Hey there, it has been awhile, again.
Lots happen' right now . The kids went back to school on August 14 this year . Can you believe
it ?That is really early. I would rather the kids have another hour tack onto their school day, than have it start so early in the summer. Adding another 10 or 15 minutes on to each class time would be a lot nicer. My daughter agrees, she would rather stay longer that start school so soon.

Well , the real reason I am posting tonight , at such a late hour , is to rant about Wal-Mart.
I found two dogs at the end of our street where it lets out onto a real busy street. One of them
kept acting like she was going to try to cross the busy street. I was on my way to get Sharon's
boyfriend from the Hibdon store , where he dropped his car off for some brake repair.

I saw these two dogs and I thought, "there is no way I am going to be coming back down the street and see these two dogs dead in the street". So, I stopped at the stop sign and got the two dogs to let me put them in the car, they are some one's babies , they laid down on the back seat
and did not make a sound. Well, I made some flyers to put up at stores around here. There is a Wal-Mart and a Neighborhood Market in my area , so I was going to put a flyer in those stores in addition to the connivance stores around here. I asked permission of course. Well , guess what their response was? "We do not allow flyers to be displayed in our stores."
And here I thought Wal-Marts were supposed to be family and community oriented. As far
as I am concerned , this is not very community oriented. The Wal-Marts are the center of a
community anymore. Everyone goes there, it is the perfect place to put a found dog sign.
Now , not only has Wal-Mart driven out the mom and pops, it doesn't care about the
community it serves.Unfortunately , it is the only game in town as far as groceries are concerned. There is a small grocery store, but it does not have everything I need.
Wal-Mart, in my opinion, is getting too big for their britches.

Well , that is enough for now, I am going to email Wal-Mart now and give them a piece of my mind .
