The CK Daily – Fun & Recharge
Happy Monday!
What a busy weekend, or should I say Saturday! I had a breakfast meeting with the Church men’s group at the International House of Pancakes (otherwise known as IHOP) and enjoyed a veggie omelet and some fruit (I’m trying to eat healthy) and also enjoyed some great conversations and fellowship. Afterwards I headed to small card show in Stone Mountain, Georgia and it sort of reminded me of a mini-Collect-A-Con. There were a ton of people and I was able to snag some great cards. After the card show I went and watched the new Captain America movie with some friends. I enjoyed the film, but I was left wanting more! I’m looking forward to seeing how the Marvel franchise expands in the coming years. We had dinner afterwards at a place where you choose your own packet ramen, choose toppings, and cook the ramen yourself. I was a bit skeptical at first, but it was great! I sort of ruined my healthy food streak, but it was worth it!
Sunday was a little less busy. I went to Church, and I took some time to clean out our duck pen and shed and watched the Pokémon European International Championships finals. I was glad to have a less busy day after a long day of doing a ton of things, it definitely helped me recharge. How do you recover from busy days?
I hope you have a great day and wonderful week!

Learning Center Article – Servers Vs. Desktop PCs
If you ever shop for computer parts, you might see things for desktop PCs and servers lumped together. A server is a type of computer, but it is not made for individual or personal use. Instead, it’s made to interface with a number of other digital devices. Often, servers handle processing tasks for connected devices. As for a desktop PC, it’s a personal computer that could conceivably sit on top of a desk.
