I am so blessed! With the recent medical bills for my sons surgery and not having any health insurance....I was shocked and elated yesterday when I won $500 on a lottery scratch off ticket! I have never won that much...................I am very very grateful for this, money was getting super tight this month with school starting back, having to buy bandages and such.....................
I don't buy a whole lot of lottery tickets....but man.what a 'high' when ya win big! I would faint if I won millions.......heck to me $500 is the jackpot!!

I am grateful for the friends
that my eyes have never seen
but my heart knows so well,
my spirit is lifted
and I am so grateful
for the sisters
and the friends I have made since that day
over three years ago....
Here @ SR! Thank you SR for the lifeline you have provided for me and for so many others.
