Well, another month has passed by. Nonetheless, Happy August and Happy Birthday to Jessie who turns 8 today. She's the granddaughter who has the same red hair as her aunty along with the same stubborn Swede streak. Big cookout party on Saturday for her. Now I just need to find her something really cool for an 8 year old besides Barbie and Polly Pockets. Maybe it's time we got her interested in reading. Off to the bookstore then!
Huz and I saw the boob guy yesterday and got informed. I also got sized up for implants which huz seemed to enjoy watching. It was actually pretty interesting stuff but we were left wondering that after the new boob is done and doesn't quite match the right one, will we have to pay for "symmetry"? I think it's an option to have a "lift" done to old boob but I don't think insurance will pay and boob guy thinks I'd probably want it done. More $$$ to spend that won't be going to the retirement fund. Now I just need to know how much the tummy tuck is and maybe we can get that done before the 2008 bathing suit season!! And when I win the lottery, I won't care how much I spend.......I'm doing it all!!
Speaking of the lottery: Have you ever been at the store when someone is cashing in on their small lottery winnings and they win like $100 and instead of doing something like buy a week's groceries (they usually look like they could use some food) they just spend it on more lottery tickets???? I once hit it big for just over $500 and I spread the wealth. My grandson was soon to be born so I paid off his mom's layaway of baby stuff, bought more baby stuff and used the rest to buy a few things for the house and for upcoming vacation. I don't even think I bought another lottery ticket right away. People don't realize that instead of narrowing the chances of winning they actually increase (big time) the odds of winning. These are the same people that have a "strategy" when they hit the casinos in Vegas. Any thoughts here??
So ends Amma's rant of the day. Have a fabulous August. Enjoy the rest of summer.
