The CK Daily – A Happy Halloweekend 🎃
Happy Monday!
It was a very busy weekend for my family. We started the weekend with a trunk or treat at my daughter’s elementary school, then a karate tournament, another trunk or treat at the local ballpark, and then another candy giveaway at our Church. We will have enough candy to last the rest of the year! Luckily they got a bunch of Kit Kat and Crunch bars (my favorites) and I imposed my 10% dad tax on some of their candy, they didn’t mind too much, haha. What are your favorite Halloween treats?
The karate tournament went well, my daughter did not place, but she had a lot of fun and it was a good experience for her. She was the youngest in her category and was competing against many older kids and she accepted the loss well, knowing what she needed to do better next time! I’m very proud of her and hope she continues this journey! I think losing can build character and resilience, and I hope she doesn’t take it as a sign to give up, but rather to work harder next time!
This week’s Halloween! I’ll be watching Hocus Pocus (and not the sequel) and eating some Halloween treats! I hope you have a spooktacular week and a wonderful day!

Learning Center Article – Understanding HDMI Types & Specifications
High-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) is something that almost all of us recognize. It’s the de facto cable used to play video — especially for anything involving high-definition.
It’s a plug-and-play type of cable, and you probably have one or more of these cables connected to a TV (or more) in your home. While the essentials of HDMI are easily grasped, there’s a lot more to this technology than most people realize.
