A little MEMEory

I do have more interesting entries to write but I haven't had much time. They are coming, I promise, about such topics as 'junk I recently received' and 'barfing at breakfast' and the one I dread, ' looks like this whole staying-at-home-with-my-kids-and-not-earning-a-salary may not work out after all.' I dread writing that because I will cry all the way through it. So, on to the meme:

1. What's the luckiest thing that's ever happened to you?
Easy. Being in the Dove commercial. Earned me $7,000 which I used to travel Russia and other less interesting, but still wonderful, parts of Europe.

2. Is there something that you just cannot seem to have luck with?
Money and our house. We have no money, mostly because of our house. We need new steps, a new roof, new eaves. I'm sure there is more we need but we're ignoring it if it isn't causing major problems. Oh wait, leaky basement.

3. Do you do any gambling? If so, what kind?
I've only ever gambled once in a casino kind of place and that was at the Rideau-Carleton Raceway and slots. Quite the dive but John and I had fun. I think it is the kind of place where people wear diapers so they don't have to leave their slot machine - how lovely. I took $20 in and left with nothing. I used to go once and a while to the Flamboro Downs outside of Hamilton with my boyfriend of the time. That was fun because it was cheap and outside and it was horseracing. I have a very unaddictive personality so gambling doesn't hold much appeal to me.
