An April Fool

It is no secret that I have not been happy with my job for a long time!!!  There was a time I loved it.  Not anymore.  I have spent months considering my options.  After a conversation with my doctor where she reminded me this is my one chance of life on Earth.  I need to find some joy.  I decided to make some changes.  BIG changes.  Yesterday I officially gave notice to retire from my super stable company that gives amazing raises and bonuses.  Crazy right?  My last day of work is June 7th.  Done. No going back.
Now this would not be a big deal if I had worked at the company for many years.  I have not.  So I get a teeny tiny pension that may not even pay for my health insurance.  Yet, I still think it is the right thing to do.
Now I am not a risk taker.  At all.  Do not do roller coasters.  Do not jump off cliffs into rivers.  Could not get in the car and drive without having a destination.  I am a planner.  A list maker.  I do not take risks with money.  Until now.......
I am super close, about to pull the trigger, to signing a lease on a building in my little town.  My little town that many people feel is in big trouble right now.  I believe in my town.  I want to be a part of it.  I want people to walk down the main streets and have places to walk in and browse.  So, I am super close, one phone call away, from starting a candy store.  Not just candy.  Some coffee, pop, popcorn.  Build up to maybe having ice cream.  A place people can walk to with their kids.  A place children can ride their bikes to and get candy. 
I have been doing quite a bit of research.  I have a phone call to make tomorrow to make sure I do not have to do special kitchen type things.  I need to pick the name, complete some paperwork.  It will then be real.
The name is an issue.  It cannot be a name registered already in State of Illinois.  Here are a couple I am looking at:

The Candy Jar - the only issue I have with this is there is more than candy
The Sweet Shop - really like it.  Tru Stories does not like the word sweet.
New name just made the short list - Sweet Somethings

It has to be a short name.  "The" should be in front of it.  People here like to put the word "The" in front of businesses. 

So there it is.  Life changing events happening here at The Page Turner home.  Feel free to jump in on the name game.  Just remember the rules for a name.
