Spring had sprung here in NJ…FINALLY!!!! Spring is such a glorious time of year as everything awakens from a cold slumber. It is also a busy time as everyone holds off on any events or activities until the first sign of spring. The past few weeks have been a bit busy as we have had one event after another to attend.
Two of the events were fundraisers. One was a casino night fundraiser for our Newcomers’ organization. It was a great party but a couple of drinks and a few bidding wars had us writing a large check and walking away with 7 good auction items.
Five days later we attended another fundraiser for Chloe’s pre-school. Each year the pre-school has an event where the children of the school sing and there are baskets auctioned as a fundraiser. I only bid on one basket (and didn’t win it) but I won the biggest prize of the night----the 50/50 prize---I won $215! I made back some ground from the casino night.
I guess my winning streak stayed with me because later in the week I won an outdoor fire pit from a local garden center at a luncheon I attended. WOOHOO!
