I miss my grill...

With the summer heat upon us, we would prefer not to heat up the house with baking or cooking. We don't have a gas grill yet. I really miss having one. Not that I'm Famous Dave or anything but I do like doing the cooking on the grill. It's just another in a line of added expenses we are facing these days. So what to do when things are down. 1. Pray  2.Praise God  3. Look for the positive  4. Pull out gems of inspiration like the poem below which was given to all Olivia High School Basketball players by Coach Ostby.


"If you think you are beaten, you are. If you think you dare not, you don't. If you like to win, but you think you can't. It's almost certain that you won't. If you think you'll lose, you're lost. For out in the world, we find...Success begins with a person's will...it's all in the state of mind.  If you think you are outclassed, you are. You've got to think big to rise. You've 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 fellow who thinks he can."              -Author Unknown
