I won two prizes at a raffle we had a work.

One prize is two tickets to our local playhouse and the other prize is a wine and glass caddy with a bottle of wine and two wine glasses similar to the one below:

So glad I went. Purchased a bunch of earrings (am wearing a pair of Afghan coins that I got), a brownie, a couple gifts, and some raffle tickets.

Lucky me!

I went to our Arts & Crafts fair. Employees (and friends of employees) bring in their crafts or foods to sell, a few local businesses donate their goods, one of the owners auctions off his timeshare for a week, etc, and part of the proceeds go to charity. The $2 ghirardelli brownies always sell out within a couple hours.

I've been here for years and this is the first time I won something in the raffle.

Congratulations on your raffle wins! - Wendy's has been selling a Frosty Sundae made with Ghirardelli chocolate sauce and crumbled chocolate chip cookies. Honestly, the sauce was the best part. Alas, they are no longer making them. But they were amazing while they lasted.

What's making me smile? The red berries on the holly outside in my yard.

I napped after breakfast for two hours then ate icecream when I woke up. Perfect.

Making holiday prezzies for our team of 8 staff members at work. I bought cute tiny tins, then filled them with holiday candy, then made each person a home made holiday card, with which they get a picture of a special art project I made last summer (back in 2018). They have no idea that I am bringing gift swag bags to work tomorrow, so it makes me smile that I can do something kind for each person on our team and get their holiday season off to a wonderful start.

Leaves, leaves everywhere!

Today, I was out and about and saw swirling leaves dance across the cobblestone street. They danced, as if, they were in a flash mob. First, swirling in, single file. Then scattered into couples. Quite enjoyable to see on a beautiful fall morning.

I got a big dose of sugar, baby, honey today. That is comfort food for my soul.

Finished a beautiful quilt. Sweet pink and sage greens. I have lots of teapot and tea cup fabric. I really like how it turned out, smiling.

Getting a letter from my house lender/mortgage telling me I have too much in my escrow act and sent a check for $1250 to me and stated my house payment will be lowered $120 a month. Cant remember my house payment EVER getting lowered.

Getting a letter from my therapist today, telling me that she cleared her calendar to accommodate therapy sessions on Saturday's. It wasn't working out for me to go after work and I am tickled that we can resume my PTSD trauma therapy again.

FireSignFemme · 12-10-2019, 12:36 AM

Watching little Daisy Lynn toddle around. Her mom has been staying with J and my son until she gets on her feet and she's doing a good job of it. She 's been hired at the post office so J was babysitting while her mom went to orientation/did training, something like that. Daisy is a really sweet little girl and a very easy child to look after so it was a nice, pleasant day.

Listening to Bevi deal with a telemarketer that was going to drop her Visa credit card rate. "Oh which card are you talking about? Is it my Victoria's Secret card?". She received a muddled response that it must be a Visa card. "Well how about my SexToysRUs card....that's a Visa card? I think I have $2400 on that. I spend a lot of money on sex toys." …..Hello?.....Hello?
