My husband and my anniversary is April 28 and in the year 2005 but we were busy at the time to take time off to celebrate.
So we postponed and made reservations at one of the casino’s in Lake Tahoe for around May 10. We arrived on a Friday and were supposed to be there for 2 nights leaving on Sunday (we were presently remodeling our house and our son turned 16 years so we going to need a vehicle for him). We were both feeling happy and just enjoyed ourselves. Friday evening I won $1,000 on wheel of fortune machine. Saturday, I won another $1,500.
On Sunday, because I was just so happy and feeling great, I asked my husband, can we just stay another day. He agreed so I called work to take a day off, etc. Monday morning, we were getting ready to leave but went down to the café in casino for breakfast. My husband always played Keno. So I thought I’ll play a ticket so I played an 8 spot marking the birthdays of our two children, my birthday, our anniversary and mine and my husband’s ages. I played the ticket for 2 games at $2 each game. I thought wow if I could just get 7 out of the 8 that would be $3,000. Well I looked up at the Keno board and I started counting all the numbers I had marked and I looked at my husband and I said I think I won something. He took the ticket, looked at the board and then the ticket and then he looked at me and I said did I win and he said OH YEAH and I said how much? He said you don’t want to know. Then the Keno runner came up immediately and asked me to come to the front desk because I had won – I asked how much and he said $50,000. I was in shock, they took my picture, gave me a $45,000 check and $5,000 in cash. I asked my husband can we just stay one more day and he agreed again and the casino gave us a suite, we called our best friends and they came up to help us celebrate. I gave them each $300 in an envelope and they refused it but I finally convinced them to use for their kids and grandchild. We went to play wheel of fortune and I was sitting in between them and I won $636. So I told them see I gave this money to you but I got it back so don’t feel guilty about taking money.
We bought my son a new truck and paid for the remodel. I never asked again until this year for help with money situation, but when I applied the law of attraction you already know the second story. (I will share Rebecca’s second story another day)
