     Before I start today I must apologise for not writing sooner I have been so busy, trying to work more on my Kitchen……All the Cabinets cleaned out, and rearranged What a job that was.  Two Garbage bags of junk went out of here not to mention the two bags/boxes of stuff for a yard sale!  WOOHOO!  I am making progress.  Now for the better stuff….A lot to catch up on this past week.  I also got in 5 days at work instead of my usual 3 which is another subject all it’s own.  I haven’t been to the store because I am afraid of what I will see…….LOL. 

     I am sure that Chaos has ensued since Monday morning, remember the Lottery came to town.  I am sure it has been more than a three ring circus.  You see we had no training at all, the system wasn’t to go online until Sunday night/Monday morning at 12:01 AM.  They made a big deal out of this on the news too, which for a state that has so many that didn’t want the Lottery I guess it is a big deal.  I haven’t gone by to see what I am in for come Thursday when I go back to work.  We already had people paying for their Cigarettes, and Tobacco products with change…..loose change.  I can’t even imagine what the girls have been put through this past week.

     The last report I heard was that $1.4 Million in tickets had already been sold……and the payouts are around $740,000……so far.  I don’t really know if that is good or bad.  In just 2 whole days this is what has been sold so far.  My Hubby called me when he left for work on Monday morning and got to the store he usually stops at to get Ice, and a drink.  He said they were lined up all the way outside and their was nowhere to actually park. And this was at 5:30 AM  PEOPLE that is just too darn early to be gambling….LOL. He had to park in one of the fuel isles in order to go into the store.

     That is just plain CRAZY…..the tickets are not going to go away, not anytime soon.  They will keep selling them from now on, and this was just the Scratch off tickets here.  The other Power Ball won’t be put in place until October 31st………JUST CRAZY!! 

     I am proud of him, he waited until he came home and only bought 10, and split them with me…..AWWW.  He is good to me you know……we won $7.00 not bad, but I just don’t think I will be able to take that Alaskan Cruise I want to take on that amount.  I told him he needs to do better, and Dammit be picking winners with some good amounts!  More than a $1, at this rate we will be in the poor house by the time we get enough for the both of us to take that cruise.

     I will keep everyone up to date on this ongoing development, I wonder how many people have won anything from our store?  I guess I better go  by there when I go to the lumber store.  I am going to be busy building a table for my kitchen…..I sure could use some money….I might just have to buy some tickets while I am there.   Oh I just can’t wait till I have to go to work…….LOL

Have a good day
