It must be a winning streak

hotm buttonRemember this post about the HOTM online conference free ticket drawing? You know, the one nobody commented on? Guess what? I won! Yep I got a free ticket. So I can sit in my pajamas and sip my coffee from my big Winnie the Pooh coffee mug filled with my favorite home ground coffee flavored by the best home made vanilla syrup and attend a home school conference. Yep. That’s right.

But the streak story isn’t over. Yesterday, PapaJohn found a dollar in his pocket he didn’t know he had. He had just filled up the ‘burb with gas (in other words, he broke the bank). When he went in to pay he decided to splurge and buy a scratch off ticket (one of those little Louisiana Lottery money thieves). He brought it home for me to scratch off and guess what. I won that too. A whopping $3.00. A whole three dollars. I guess he should have splurged on one of those really big tickets for the millions of dollars instead.

And while technically I only won two dollars and got the original one dollar back, do not burst my bubble. I’ll be using that three dollars to buy some doughnuts to go with my coffee and pajamas for the online homeschool conference. :)

Now let’s just pray my winning streak continues long enough for me to get my computer back from the computer hospital. I’m having to beg and borrow to get my Internet fix. I want it back in time so I can lock myself away from time to time during the conference chat hours. :lol:

Also, all my emails were on that computer. I did back everything up, but in the meantime while it is gone I do not have access to those files. I don’t know if I need to do anything or not. I got an email, but I’ll have to do some back tracking to reconnect with my winning ticket. S’alright. I’m still a winner.

  1. I’m so excited for you! I’ll be there, too, at least some of the time. What speakers are you most interested in? Maybe we’ll be in some sessions together. :)
