The CK Daily – Fall is…here?!
Happy Thursday!
The weather here in Georgia is starting to cool off and I’m not mad about it! It’s been beautiful outside these past few days and it makes for mid-day or afternoon walks to be so enjoyable. Today, Starbucks dropped their fall menu of drinks. Secretly, these and the Christmas drinks are some of my favorites….but, it might be just a tad too early but that seems to be the trend for several things this year. Football season seems like it’s kicking off a bit earlier than normal and the back to school season also felt earlier than normal.
I think the thing that has really thrown me off is Hobby Lobby! They’ve had the Christmas decorations about for a while now, but this past weekend I saw that they kicked off their highly anticipated 50% off sale of the Christmas décor. Usually I’d be excited, but I’m not in that mindset at all! Actually when I walked by the door of Hobby Lobby this weekend, it was scorching outside.
Do you like all the things coming out earlier this year? What are you most looking forward to for the upcoming end of the year holiday season?

Why bulk cables? They are designed to improve the lives of installers and administrators everywhere. Ok, that might be a little dramatic, but this 1000′ Pull Box, 550MHZ UTP of Blue Ethernet Cables is designed to allow professionals to easily run lengths and long runs on the fly. Why plan ahead? These pure copper cables are more cost effective because you can cut and terminate them at pennies a cord.
