A lot would depend on how much the lottery was. If it were a $10 win, I would assume not much will change! But, if we won $10 million, which would be impossible since we don’t play the lottery at all, we could...
1. Dennis could retire now because we will be able to pay for my health insurance!
2. Pay off our children’s houses.
3. Visit Maui every year.
4. Give $5,000,000, or half of it, to Samaritans Purse.
5. Put the rest in the trust we have set up for our kids and grandkids.
It’s fun to dream isn’t it?
I loved all the comments on my last post about people who decorate with snowmen. I usually put them out when I put the Christmas tree up, but the snowman stay out until February or so when I put out Valentine’s Day decorations. That’s one of the things I like about snowman. They are so cheery and can be left out all winter. They aren’t automatically relegated to Christmas decorations only.
Here are a few more photos of our decorations.
We ended up not getting any snow at all last night north of Spokane where we live. Spokane itself had various amounts. When I turned the news on this morning, the anchorman was talking about having to shovel over 5 inches from his driveway in order to get to work at the news station. Just a few miles north of us they had over 8 inches. It was like we were in the middle of a donut hole! We will take it. It rained and rained and rained all night long and until about noon today. I don’t care. Let it rain. I don’t have to shovel rain! Next week rain is predicted every day with highs in the 40’s. Almost like spring time!
I finished the Packers scarf about 15 minutes ago to go with the hat I made a few days ago. I started out carrying both the green and the yellow up the side so I wouldn’t have so many ends to weave in, but the yellow looked terrible, so I had to start cutting it off at each stripe. The green I did carry entire length of the scarf. I frogged the 12 inches I had done and started over. Then, when I was all done, I spent about four hours just weaving yellow ends in.
Watching the news it seems like Covid is roaring back to life again. Even the states who seemed to have “flattened the curve” are now having huge increases. Officials are recommending not having Thanksgiving with anyone except the family that lives in your household. How sad. But, it’s worth it to miss a few holidays if it means we can finally do something about getting rid of this virus.

I was told today about a young woman who used to live in Spokane and go to our church. She keeps in contact with some of the people here and apparently she was in the hospital for over three weeks with Covid. She is in her late 20s, very healthy and active. She said today she finally walked by herself for the first time. And yet, there are still people who deny it even exists. Honestly, I don’t understand that. Dennis is going to work and coming straight home. I am not going anywhere, except to pick up my grocery order on Monday morning. I have ordered extra so I don’t have to go back for a couple of weeks. If I actually get everything on my list. I hear the shelves are getting empty again. I don’t even like getting a pick up order anymore, I am so afraid of bringing the germs in.
I am so grateful to have all of you to visit with on our blogs. It makes life seem not so lonely. It’ssure a good thing I like our cozy trailer isn’t it? How are all of you coping?
Take care and stay safe my friends.
Blessings,
Betsy
