Lucky Four Leaf Clover

I was reminiscing last nite and decided to look again at the birthday present my best friend, Ammeg, got me last year. It was a wonderful/thoughtful/creative gift and such a big surprise and along with all the goings on before her much anticipated arrival, I thought I might go look through it all again, only a bit slower this time. Now without too much details, she managed to give me a surprise gift in a box with a note for each year of my existence and although I may have taken out some of the gifts from each box and put them somewhere I can see them each day, there are still some gifts in the boxes along with the notes she included.

Now I don't want to say I am having yet another "bad" year....but lets just say I am not happy with the current situation... still. Also it seems that with the gas and grocery prices going up what seems like each day, the pocket book is not looking pretty. So upon my looking at the gift boxes, I came across a box that had a lucky horseshoe key chain in it along with a token of a Four Leaf Clover. I called out to Shank that I thought it might be a good idea for me to keep this out and put inside my purse to keep with me each day, to hopefully get some good luck to come my way. Or at the least keep me safe.
Within minutes, I opened a box to find a TEN DOLLAR BILL! WHAT???? This has been here all this time and I forgot about it? NO WAY! I don't forget about Money that I have.....ever.
Well I guess I forgot about this! Ammeg had put this in there along with some numbers for us to use and play the lottery one time...on her. Such a sweet idea. And I forgot about it! But still it was a TEN DOLLAR BILL! YIPPEE! FOUND MONEY! You know like when you put up a jacket one spring only to get it out the next fall to find some loose change or maybe a dollar or so in it? But this was a Ten Dollar Bill!! It was fun, and lucky too I might add as I had just put aside the lucky 4 leaf clover and there you go..... I find some cash!

Thanks Ammeg. Tonite is Lottery nite and we will be using the $10 to use the lucky numbers you included.



Man, am I ever glad I found the 4 leaf clover now.........PowerBall is up to $26million and Hoosier is up to $3million..either one will do nicely, thankyouverymuch.......:)

Legitimate Question

What is the easiest & quickest way to open about 2500, 1/10 ounce packets of Domino sugar?

Me..Boring?

I have never thought of my self as the "life of the party"....however didn't think I was boring either.
That being said, for the last several years The Shankster has experienced what we both lovingly & jokingly refer to as NarcoSleepy.

He can and has fallen into a deep sleep at the drop of a hat. Anywhere, Anytime. I have been in the car with him when he has fallen asleep, I have been on the other side of the table while eating when he has fallen asleep. At a restaurant I might add. And for a while now have had several occasions where I was in conversations with him where he feel asleep during my part of the conversation. So today as we were "talking" and deep into a conversation I might add where he was giving me input regularly...all of a sudden he was snoring before I could get my next word out...I mean he was out like a light in less than a second..I'm talking out in less time than you could say...one one thousand...what is that? a nano second? That had to be the quickest time ever that he has fallen asleep while we were in a lively conversation. Or any other time for that matter.

Now as I sat there and starred at him for more than 5 minutes....... I got to wondering. What the heck is it about me that is so boring that could do that to a person...any person...let alone one that obviously loves you to no end? Am I boring? Am I putting him to sleep?

Is there a chance....I mean....Could it be possible, Is it possible, that I am NOT the funniest, happiest, friendliest, smartest, most considerate, most talkative, exciting and sweetest person I think I am?


Naaaaaaaaaa.................
