Not sure what it is about the game, but I can&#8217;t quit it. Just win one more today. Wednesday nights are always crazy in our house. The kids didn&#8217;t get home until after 8:30, so we had to help them with their lunches. They do a lot, so I am glad to do it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">As a reminder, I think it was last year, maybe the year prior, that we started making lunches for the kids every day. Mom started it, and she put a sweet note in their lunch box. When I got home from a work trip, I took over lunch-making duties, and the kids or mom asked if I put a note in their lunch. Initially, I did not, and I knew I was not good at writing sweet notes, so I began looking up quotes. This year, for the most part, the kids have made their own lunches, so I began posting them here.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">1. <em>&#8220;When everybody owns something, nobody owns it, and nobody has direct interest in maintaining or improving its condition.&#8221;<\/em> &#8211; Milton Friedman<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">2. <em>&#8220;Here was space enough for a man to be free and silence enough to hear the beating of his own heart.&#8221;<\/em> Owen Wister (1902)<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">3. <em>&#8220;Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world.
