Hi angel friends! :) i had some Shamrock Luck at the Casino today! :) awww! :) We hope everyone is doing well, and enjoying a great saturday! :) 2 awesome adventures today :) Shopping at Walmart, and Preakness Stakes horse race day at the Mohegan Sun casino :) This is one of the coolest days of the year, with the 2nd race in the Triple Crown :) We're set, and ready to cheer on the horses this evening :) We love the triplet crown horse races :) i've been thinking of you all often today :) You all are always with us in spirit, during our adventures, and we're with you all in spirit too, our sweet dear wonderful guardian angel friends :) it was awesome browsing around at walmart, and then cruising down to the mohegan sun casino :) i wanted to place some bets, for the big race this evening, the Preakness Stakes :)
it's a spirited saturday! :) my family and i are doing well :) This morning, we had a really nice nourishing rainfall here in our area :) it was very much needed, nice rain nourishment for the plants, seedlings, and trees :) We've got some nice birds visiting our yard, and Mr. Squirrel climbing in our dogwood tree :) i enjoyed my early morning nature walk, and went out for a 2nd nature walk, when Jenn, Mikey, and baby Hunter came over to visit :) Mikey and i put some more black sunflower seeds in our front yard, for the birds and squirrels :) he was watching on, as more birds were visiting :) it was a really nice morning :) Thank you all for all of your heart-felt comments on our baking friday journal :) We're so happy, and delighted you all enjoyed our adventures, and pictures of our ninja turtles themed baking friday adventure :) i enjoyed some nice quality time here on ds this morning, writing to friends :)
Around mid-morning, my dad was up, and we did some studying online for the Preakness Stakes horse race contenders :) We watched some of the races the horses have been in recently :) it was nice, getting to see the horses run :) We made our picks for the race :) Jenn, Mikey, and baby Hunter visited for a nice couple hours, and also my niece Alyssa was here earlier too :) Kayla and Taylynn went over to visit with Taylynn's dad's parents today :) They sometimes bring them to mcdonalds to get some treats :) it was approaching late morning, and we were all getting ready to go out :) my mom, dad, and i were gonna go shopping first, at the walmart store :) i still had a nice walmart gift card, from my birthday :) there were some items i wanted to buy :) i felt really relaxed, focused, and was getting ready for the big day of adventures :)
We began our journey over to walmart :) my mom, dad, and i were enjoying a nice talk :) i wanted to buy some allegra allergy medicine, as my allergies have really flared up in recent days. allegra helps me. we approached walmart, and parked our car :) We walked into the main entrance area, and then walked over to the men's clothe's section :) i looked at the shirts, and jeans :) walmart has bootcut jeans, i want to buy an extra pair soon, to wear out when i'm gardening, as the gardening does put lots of wear and tear on jeans, and i like to keep 2 pairs of jeans for when we go out. definitely soon, i'll buy a pair of the bootcut jeans there :) We walked over to the dvds section. my dad was looking at the electronics, my mom went to look at the baby clothes for baby Hunter :) i was browsing at the dvds, and i saw a dvd set, the Austin Powers movies, all 3 movies together, for $10. Sweet! :) i bought the movies :) i met back up with my mom and dad, and we walked across the store over to the garden center :)
In the garden center, i bought about 12 packets of garden seeds :)string beans, some flowers, and i was so excited, some were 5 for $1. :) cool deal! :) Gardening time!!! :) we're planning a nice gardening day tomorrow :) We walked over to the pharmacy area, and i bought a box of allegra allergy medicine :) allegra really helps me, during the allergy season. i'm severely allergic to pollen, and this time of the year, the pollen is really blossoming. we went to the checkout, and it went smoothly :) a very special shoutout to our dear friends Patricia (Phoebesfriend) and her family :) i used my nice walmart gift card they gave me for my birthday, to buy the items i got today :) After we checked out, we put our stuff into our car, and then cruised over to the mohegan sun casino :)
my mom, dad, and i were very excited :) We parked in the parking lot area, and walked into the mohegan sun :) We walked the awesome route that is our favorite route into there, and saw all of the Mohegan Tribal art :) There's lots of excitement all around inside of the mohegan sun :) i felt much more relaxed inside there today, than i did during derby day. i think derby was a bit harder, because i hadn't been to the mohegan sun in almost a year. i was walking with my mom and dad, into the main casino area :) the sounds of the slot machines, ding ding ding!!!! :) it's really exciting :) we went to the casino racebook :) it was open at the time. for derby day, it was closed until 1:30pm that day, and we got our tickets at the convention center, but today, the racebook was open, and we got to go in :) We saw the huge screens they have, for Pimlico, Belmont, and Churchhill downs race tracks :) a race was going on, people were cheering and cheering for their horses, it was awesome excitement :) my dad went up to place the bets at the booth :) he has a friend that works there :) We got our bets placed :)
For the Preakness Stakes, i played 4 tickets :) American Pharoah #1 to win, with all of the other horses wheeled to come in 2nd. if that happens, i'll win on the exacta :) i also played a #8 and #1 exacta ticket, and i played two, $2 place tickets, on #3 and #7. :) my dad and mom placed some bets too, and we also placed a bet for my brother Bobby. :) he didn't get to go there today, but we were thankful we could place the bet for him :) after we were all set at the racebook, we then walked through the casino areas :) We saw lots of people playing the slots. We walked over to the casino mall, and then went to the Casino of the Sky area, this is where we played the penny slots a few times in 2012 :) my mom played a bit on the same machine my sister Lisa won on, last wednesday :) my dad and i watched my mom play, she didn't win, but we decided to walk over to another area, where they have rows of slots machines. i picked up a lucky shamrock dublin slots machine :) it looked lucky! :)
on the slot machine, i began to play, i put $20 in, i planned to play with $10 only, so if i went down to $10, i would cash out, but once i began to play, i went up to $25, then $30, i was on a roll! :) my mom and dad played on the same kind of machine down the row from me, and 2 other people came by and sat down next to me. i was up to $30, and i got this dublin x3 symbol, a BAR symbol, and then a shamrock!!! :) oh my! oh wow!!! :)the machine was DING DING DING!!!!!! DINGING!!! it went from, $30 to $50!!! :) wow! :) i kept playing a bit, it was going up and down, and once it was around $40, i cashed out, i doubled my money!!! :) i'm thrilled! :) i'm totally happy, because the $20 extra i won, that's how much i bet on the preakness, so no matter what happens with my preakness tickets, i will at least come out even today, but still, i may win big on the preakness race too! :) GO HORSES! :) i really wanted my mom and dad to win too! awww! we walked deeper into the casino, i was doing really well, feeling relaxed :) i had my ticket with $40.55 from the slot machine :) my mom played another slot machine a while, she didn't win. we decided to go over to the cash out machine, i got my $40.55. :) i was so thrilled! :)
We began to make our way back out into the mall area :) we were looking at the shops, it was so nice, they got starbucks, all kinds of restaurants, and yankee candle :) i didn't take any pictures inside there today, but maybe next time definitely :) We walked back out to the main area of the mohegan sun, and made our way back to our minivan :) i was feeling so happy, because i had doubled my money on the slot machine, and got preakness tickets :) We're all set, and ready for the preakness this evening :) This afternoon, my brother Bobby stopped by and picked up his preakness ticket we placed for him :) it was so nice going to walmart, and the casino today :) my mom and dad are proud of me, and how well i did :) i really felt relaxed in both places, and did so well too :) i'll be cheering on the horses this evening, for the preakness stakes :)
It's an awesome saturday :) my family and i are doing well, and are in good spirits :) i recieved some ncie letters in the mail today. :) i'm going to be writing some letters, in the upcoming days :) i'm getting back into a grove, with my writings :) i'm feeling very blessed, and thankful, to be surrounded by lots of love, care, support, guidance, and encouragement :) You all are helping me a lot :) i'm very blessed, and thankful :) This evening, we'll be watching the Preakness Race :) tonight, i'm going to watch one of my new movies i got today, at walmart :) it's gonna be awesome movie night :) Tomorrow, we want to do some yard, and garden work, plus planting flowers seeds in our gardens :) we're gonna go shopping at agway store too :) i'm really excited, to share about our gardening day :) Thank you angel friends, so very much, for all that you do for us :) You all are wonderfully nice, and sweet :) We deeply appreciate everything, with all of the love of our hearts :) BIG GROUP WARM FRIENDSHIP HUG :) There's many more good times to look forward too, with family, friends, and nature :)

Wow you won !!!! I am thrilled !!! You deserve that Chris !!! I love the casino we have here in Cherokee, but I can\'t let myself go I have a gambling addiction problem, I would blow all my money.It is fun and exciting.I used to do good on the craps tables.That place is way big and prettier than the one we have. I am glad you had a fun day. I hope all those seeds come up and grow and give you lots of food, even some to put up and save to eat during the winter. I gave up on planting a garden this year, too many unexpected expenses, maybe next year, I hope ! Thank you so so much for the wonderful hug you sent me for Sat. Loved every word. Love you like a brother or a son Chris and your family like my own.Ya\'ll are good people Chris.I feel privileged and honored to have you for a friend.Thank you for being my friend.I cooked again for Sat. I made beef and rice mixed together with a side of steamed vegetables and french fries. Then went to Mc D\'s for supper. Got a grilled bacon ranch salad. Watched some way way old movies.Played with my puppies.That was about it for me.Take care.I am excited about your big win.Congrats !!!!
