Another Casino Day

I almost didn't go to the casino today. I woke with a headache and my stomach was telling me it wasn't happy with me. I called mom to tell her I wouldn't be going to her place. After a couple hours, things were better and Patrick was ready to go. 

We stopped to visit with Phil first. I took him some more asparagus from the garden. Then we went to the casino. Things were tight, and we were down to our last $50 when I hit the jackpot of $1100! I couldn't believe it! So, we played a little longer and came home. We brought money home again. We talked about it, and believe we are staying "even" between what we have spent and what we have won. Not bad for 9 months of playing. We usually do that, then one in a while we lose some and decide not to play for a while. The longest we have been away from the casino is about 4 years. So, who knows, we may get back to that again. 

We stopped at Safeway and picked up some supper as well as stuff we needed. They had snow crab on sale for $7 a lb. We got about 2 lbs and will have it for supper tomorrow. We go their friend chicken for tonight. 

I played on my tablet for a while, while we watched TV. 

Then I decided to sit and work on my word chart for this year's ornament. I need to get back to beading, since I just spend about $50 worth for beads. Most of it was for this ornament, so I'm not too worried. I want to get back to Sophie and her tapestry though. 

I am about halfway there. I have 2 of the panels to do the chart on. So, it should go pretty fast. Normally I have 3 panels. I am thinking of changing the black to a light blue for sky. There is blue in the "snow" area, so I will think on what I want to do. I may make one and see if I like it. If not, I can always take it out. We will see where I go from here. 

Thankfully, the headache is gone, the cramps are over with, and I'm still finding time to be Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
