Shuffling was on Wednesday,and we ended up chatting with some neighbours which seemed to take up most of the day! People are so friendly and you know what its like,you get talking about one thing and another and before long its Oh much later than you thought.....when we got home we washed the truck as the sun was setting so it made an ideal time to do it.
Thursday Off golfing with D&J at Rio Colorado,afterwards we had lunch there which was by then 2pm!
In the evening we went to the Casino at the ballroom.Everything is paid for with raffle tickets you purchase at the door.Him played Black Jack and won a few hands(winning the amount of raffle tickets you bet with,so if you were like me when I played I just bet one raffle ticket,and I won so I won a raffle ticket,get the picture?)
From here I went to the Bean Bag toss,1 raffle ticket for 4 bean bags...lost the first lot but won the second go where I won a raffle ticket.
Off to the Roulette wheel while leaving Him to play Black jack.Placed bet on Jack of diamonds and yahoo I won four raffle tickets for my one!!!!
On the Ballroom stage they had set up empty(unused !) KFC buckets with labels attatched about the prizes which were displayed behind them.At any time you could pop your raffle ticket-with your lot number on them,into the bucket of your choice to get that prize.I put several in for an electric roaster,HP printer,and some other things Him wanted !!!!.By the end of the evening we had accumulated several more tickets as Him done good at Black Jack,so off I went to get them in the buckets of our choosing.Along story short I won one of 2 Roasters!!!
One guy one four prizes and another won a 2 liter bottle of Vodka AND a 2 liter bottle of Rum!
Friday was shuffling and sitting on patio with D&J afterwards for coffee and doughnut in the glorious sun....Lovely this is the life!
In the afternoon we Skyped with Mike,Melanie and Calem which as always is wonderful to do...Just like when I have my Mother and Daughter chats on Tuesdays with Lorraine,and this week a quick chat with our other Grandson Zac who according to his Mom is growing like a weed and is eye to eye with her now! always great and keeps us all so close and makes the miles dissapear. We also were able(after getting some chores done) by, share luck, later on to Skype with our Nephew Lee and Suzie in England,hope your eyes are feeling better by now Suzie?Lovely to see you both.
