Lottery Fever
Everyone has lottery fever, Pito and I do not, we didn't either one play and we didn't win as a result of not playing. However we do have our $2.00 and we are going to invest in ourselves by putting it into the bank today so that we can retire someday and travel.
The thing with the lottery is that it is a lot of fun to dream and wonder what you are going to do with the money. We did, I'll be honest. But the reality is that it never happens that way. So many of the lottery winners are miserable, broke and so many people try and take advantage of them that they no longer trust people. Doesn't seem like a "Win" to me.
I would rather dream a while and take my money and invest in NOW. If I was going to win millions and give away half, then I can take my $2.00 and give away half just the same.
And in fact we did.
No I didn't play.
We didn't win the millions.
But I have my same friends, my family, my home, my husband, my job, my little monkey and we are all doing great. I did win.

Godfrey the Magician sent us a card trick
Godfrey the Magician sent us a card trick and a Herkimer the Mouse.
Pito has been trying to learn both of these tricks. I'll show you pictures for everything today now that my phone is working again. And you will see how cute a little monkey trying to learn magic can really be.
It is super cool knowing a magician.
He is great at his craft, which I am still in the firm belief is pure magic and not sleight of hand.
Godfrey can been seen on Youtube, on Facebook or here at my Godfrey the Magician Fan page.
Pito got cards in San Diego so he could just like Godfrey. And a notebook to take notes so he can learn to be as awesome as his new idol too.

Magic cards
We just learned how to make a magic card!!! I'll have to show you mine, but check out the tutorial we used, Pito loves Sock monkey so much!!!
How make sock monkey magic cards
We are going to try a few more of them today, but we need a few more materials.
I can hardly wait to get them made and show them off, what a fun little Christmas present don't you think?
Pito will stamp or sticker the cards and I will do the cutting.
=)
We still need the plastic sheet that comes inside of the cards, we looked at Michael's, nope. Joann, nope, and so I was told to check Hobby Lobby, so we will go on the 8th and see, hopefully they have them, this is something we need to complete this project. We will set the magic cards aside, but it is nice to have the body of the cards finished.

Monday - Cyber Monday
Nope, I am not going to buy anything today either.
And stop telling me to hurry before you run out of this or that, your limited things are of no interest to me.
I would like less, simplify, not more.
And I won't buy "It" because you sang it to me in a lovely tune.
Nope.
Pito and I are going to be in studio putting the last touches on our gifts.
Period.
We have 28 days till Christmas. More than enough time.

Sunday - Cardinals, Birthdays and eating
We didn't over eat until last night at Golden Corral. In our defense we hadn't eaten since 10am that morning. And honestly I thought I was as hungry as I had been in months. No I wasn't starving. Neither was Pito, but we were hungry.
That morning with Grandma the group of us went to Denny's and then church.
After which we took her home and drove to the Cardinal's game. They lost.
BUT
We won in a way, we got to walk around the stadium 6 times. So we got good exercise.
Oh yeah and then we walked around Glendale Glitter!! How could have I forgotten that??
Then to Cabela's for a return, then to dinner.
We wobbled home and I did homework well after Pito fell asleep.
I think I did homework well after I FELL asleep.
But it was a great day all the same.
I found out that I am a sojourner!! Just passing through....
Oh you said who had a birthday?
My BIL. I only have one.

Saturday - Go Sundevils!!
We spent the day driving to the other side of town to watch for a client to buy a painting of ours, yes another painting sold, and we are rather happy about this.
We listened to music and hung out with grandma. Then a tad shopping at Michael's for a few Christmas boxes for $1.66 each and then home for a wonderful night of not doing anything.
Total spent, less than $12.00
Total earned over $75.00
We had our own Black Friday on Saturday.
Nice!!!
