Surprising direction

Driven forward my the least amount of encouragement I am back once more.

I just have to report that there have been several encouragements lately to reflect upon. First off, my daughter is speeding along in clearing up her eye problem. Many hands were laid in prayer over this pretty frightening condition she developed this fall. We are very thankful. I also discovered there are several vitamin formulas on the shelf that promote the health of the eye so she has started taking those so hopefully no more vitreal hemorrhages for her. Driver's training is only 1 year away afterall.

Secondly, I have been facing sort of the "decision of the decade" regarding software for my company. I won't bore you with the geeky details, but just let me say that I feel like the more I research trying to find a good replacement the less options there seem to be. At least good options that were the kind I was envisioning magically dropping in my lap at a price that would leave some profit for maybe another cruise or something? Or maybe finding people who would work for almost nothing and develop a solution I design that would meet the needs of many and thereby make me rich and famous.

So, no answers of that magnitude have surfaced. However, yesterday, after praying about this yet again and then continuing to put one foot in front of the other and seize the day (go Leanne!) I suddenly had a Duh Theorem moment. By the end of the day I had figured out and tested a solution that was no small breakthrough, by nerd standards anyway. It will be faster, allow us some upgrades and eliminate some sharing errors.

I still cannot retire under this scenario, but maybe I am not really ready for that just yet! See previous post.
