“All we need
is Confidence.”
Remembering Reagan in August
It’s August in Washington.
The nice thing is- it’s not crowded anywhere, except maybe Target,
in the the ‘college dorm’ section.
So, in honor of lazy August, here’s a great quote about us,
that Ronald Reagan said back on August 17th, 1992…
“In America, our origins matter less than our destination,
and that is what democracy is all about.”

“People are just as happy
As they make up their minds to be.”
Mom, The Word ‘Please’ is not Magic
My Son: “Mom, the word, ‘Please’ is not a magic word.”
ME: “People say it’s magic because if you ask someone nicely to do something,
they’ll usually do it.”
My Son: “But it’s not magic.”
ME: “Where did you learn that?”
My Son: “We all decided it… at camp.”
Ya never know what they are going to learn at camp…
