Lucky Day!

Today was a LUCKY day for me and my fam..first and foremost, my daughter -the nurse-just got notified that she got her dream job, working in a pediatric clinic-Monday through Fridays, 8-5,no weekends,no holidays,7 dollar raise from her current job, one of my boys registered his DBA for his Contracting business and has alot of customers waiting in the wings for him to start work on their houses (as soon as the weather breaks for good)..and I went to the Racino this morning with a friend and hit a progressive penny slot to the tune of $1517.64! then to top it off, when I got home, my other daughter was there with my "late" Valentines day gift-a diamond ring that I saw in Sams Club and LOVED!..it's sooo pretty..lots of stone, loads of bling, and it looks groovy on me. Then all the kids took me and their father to dinner for what would have been our anniversary!..lol..We went to Texas road house and I got a big ol' steak..mmmmm..good day for me..yayyy

ps..please don't think I'm bragging..I'm not, I'm just wicked wicked happy about today and I wanted to share it with my online "fam". Here's the ring!

Obby, I could use a little of that good luck/karma if you could spare me a pinch or two...

Seriously, I'm glad it is rolling your way...
