Every week my mom and I buy scratch off lottery tickets! We each get one. Usually we get the $1 ones but occasionally we get $2 or $3 ones. During the holidays we got a really cool one that cost $25 and was like an advent calendar. You scratched a box each day up to Christmas and if you got three matching symbols you won a prize. We won $30-40, I forget. I got one for Linds because she is really the queen of scratch offs. She was so excited she scratched ever box right away! That's cheating! Anyways, I mentioned that I didn't have any big winners at the Derby. My poor mother had to go grocery shopping by herself while I was gone but she didn't neglect to get our scratch offs. We didn't scratch them right away because I was unpacking and eating dinner but after dinner before I left to go running we scratched them and I won $50! That's the most money I ever won on a scratch off. It was very exciting. Kind of funny I go to the Kentucky Derby and win nothing but then come home and win $50 on a scratch off. Usually we just turn them in for more tickets but this was too juicy. I cashed it and am going to treat my mother and I to pedis this weekend. As sad as I am for the Derby to be over, it really is nice to get back to my normal routines. I had a great Zumba class and my mom made a delicious dinner, Southwest Steak. She served it over rice instead of pasta (pasta seems odd to me here) and we had it with a lovely spinach salad.
