He Used His Own Money

This is not something I would buy. I did my share of "just add water and stir" cakes as a kid. They were never as good as the real deal. But Calvin decided to use his own money for two of these mixes. The first came out of its bedroom hiding place tonight. The verdict? It smells good! But I'm not allowed to have a bite.

so does that mean that he doesn't get to have a bite of anything that you use your money to buy? :o)

Words of Wisdom

This poem was found in my 96 year old Grandfather's wallet after he passed in 2008. It was written in 1965 by Walter D. Wintle.

"The Man Who Thinks He Can"

If you think you are beaten, you are,

If you think that you dare not, you don't,

If you'd like to win, but you think you can't

It's almost certain you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you're lost.

For out in the world you'll find,

Success begins with a fellow's will,

It's all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are,

You've got to think high to rise,

You've got to be sure of yourself before

You can ever win a prize.

Life's battles don't always go

To the stronger or faster man

But sooner or later the man who wins

Is the man who thinks he can.
