Well, had a good day today.
I spoke to a group over the lunch hour about persistence in prayer. It was a good time and they were eager to learn some things that I had experienced in prayer. I thought it was a lunch meeting so I brought along a bag lunch. When I got there with my lunch, nobody else had one with them. I felt like a kid in school again, who showed up at lunch with a goofy lunch box! So I tried to hide my lunch bag.
While I was downtown I checked in a computer shop (that never sells used monitors) whether they had any used monitors. Behold there was a wall of them before my eyes! So I picked up two for $30, to go with the two old CPU's I bought from Leighton last week. I may soon have the girls doing their homework, in their own rooms, on their own computers, for a total price of $60. Sweet! The sweetest thing is the chance to have them not typing on this one all the time!!!
I'm off to worship practice now.
Stay warm, it's getting cold out there.
I came home tonight to find someone doing their homework in our office on our computer - something they are not supposed to do since they have one designated for that purpose! The complaint then was that the other printer didn't work. So out I went and had to buy ink and some floppy discs so we can have the privacy of our own office space again.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if our kids will ever develope the handwriting we used to have drilled into us - that all went out the window anyway when we got to university and note taking happened.
Oh for the good old days!
