[NFB-Krafters-Korner] starting the new year right

[Henry Osborne]

Terry p, if you hit the really, really big jackpot, could we buy our dream 
home with plenty of rooms for crafting? Just think of all the looms and yarn 
that we could buy, ah.
Could we splurge just a little and let me get my Corvette? Um, no, make that 
a Lamborghini or red Ferrari, lol. We could let the folks at Virginia Tech 
set it up with computers like the driverless car so that I could finally 
drive it again.

Sure didn't know they had sound!
Makes me look forward to Los Vagus more, now!
Don't worry, I am not a big gambler!

It is more digital now.  You put your money in and can tell by the machine 
usually how much money you have won if any.  Some machines have the sound 
turned off, so you don't play those.

The only time I gambled was in Rino.  I went in with $40 and came out with 
$100!
If only I had bet 3 silver dollars, the last time, I would have won, $300!

How do you all gamble, now they do not use real money?
It does not sound fun, any more!
How do you know how much money you have and if you won anything?
I liked handling the real stuff and when those silver dollars spilled out. 
There were not enough in the machine!
My mom, never knew when to stop, but I did!

Good for you Bernice!  I too went to the casino and won a little.  Not a 
$1,000, but I did win and had a great time with my sisters for Christmas.

I hope everybody has a wonderful blessed new year.



I had a coupon for $30 free play at a casino near us. My son-in-law took me.
The casino is about 1-1/2 hours away, and it was a great opportunity to work 
on crafts.



Our NFB chapter had an auction at our Christmas party. I auctioned off a 
kleanex box cover and a decorative box using plastic grid. The person chose 
variegated blues. The kleanex box cover is like the one I will be teaching 
in my class. I got quite a lot done in the car today. Also, I work on it 
when I am at work between phone calls. Working on a craft at work helps me 
not munch on the crunchy snacks I love. So, I would say it is multi-purpose 
activity. I complete a craft and keep those empty calories at bay.



Oh, by the way. I won $1058.75.



Bernice and the adorable LoLO.
