"Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal."
---Henry Ford
Still another day with a child home sick, but I had plenty to do on Treats-4-Troops. Painted a couple of signs, sent our more messages, tried to arrange which vehicle to use for candy delivery to West Virginia, and more. This isn't an intellectually challenging project so much as an organizational and logistical one. It's been wonderful to have interest in this project from companies such as Wells Fargo and schools as far away as in New Jersey, but tricky to make it possible for everyone to get their candy here in time for delivery to Wheeling.
Overall though, it's really a fun undertaking because so many people share the desire to do something with the candy other than eat it, and they seem so willing and eager to donate it to a good cause.
