Hi Everyone,
Well I took some of my coins down to the Coinstar machine and no matter how good you check yur coins out, sometimes they surprise you. After they had gone through and I checked the kickout tray (which usually has Canadian coins in it), I found a 1944 Quarter, a 1958 and 1961 silver dime. I was really happy. I have come to the conclusion that the Coinstar machines don't like silver coins. There has been 3 other times where people have left the coins in the kickout tray and I have found merc dimes and silver quarters in them. The other surprise today was that our Churches picnic was today and they always have bingo. Usually I have to work, but today I was able to enjoy myself and I was playing bingo with my wife. Now...I never win at bingo...EVER, and every game I had played was exactly the same. I wasn't even close to winning, so the last game is a cover all and I'm going along and it wasn't long before I was 2 number away from winning, so they call 2 more numbers and I didn't have them, then the next 2 numbers were mine and I won! I won $25.00. Not alot but it was sure nice to win finally. I received alot of moans and dirty looks from some ladies, but oh well. I had a big grin on my face. I got out yesterday, but didn't find much. Just a few dollars in clad, but it was a nice day. Tonight its suppose to rain and get colder out and I am not ready for winter yet. It seems like every year Summer goes by faster. I just maybe I work to much! LOL I hope you all had a good weekend. Take care!
