Grateful for Surprise Candy Treasure!

I had a PC job come up and I drove just shy of an hour out to my client's office. He redesigned his office and needed all of his printers reconfigured and connected - six printers in all! With two laptops, that was 12 items of business, attempted to be completed in just an hour or so.

But nothing goes as planned. I got there considerably later than expected and the work went considerably later than expected. But the client was pleased and I did get everything functional.

But the biggest surprise is when his wife handed me a heavy bag of (premium) candy. My client purchased this in October for children knocking on his door, but he was out of town and hardly anyone showed up at the door. Rather than hold on to all the candy, they asked if my children would enjoy them.

Yes, they would enjoy them! Thankfully, the candy isn't my service payment (I like candy, but it doesn't pay the bills), but it was a delight to come home with this giant treasure trove of candy!

It's going to take months and months to go through all of this. We're thinking of using these as prize incentives for school-work.

What an unexpected surprise!

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.

    On what operating system were you setting up the printers? Given some of the challenges configuring printers on various computers and OSes, I give you props for doing it 12 times in such a short time. Hehehe...I haven't had candy like that in ages, but I did used to love it when I was a kid. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

    You're right, they DON'T pay the bills, but you'll put them to good use by encouraging your children to do their homework, by the way, as you say, are from excellent brands.
