Off To The Casino!
My wife and I decided to make a trip up the road to visit and play in the casino again since summer will arrive on Friday and she is off for a couple days. It will be great for me to get out the house for a change of scenery and perhaps a streak of luck at the same time.
I read about the good times some of you had going to the casino and it got in my blood to go before it get to hot. Should I get lucky and win a thousand or two I could get my air conditioner in my SUV fixed. It only blows out cool air on the drivers side and I hate riding with the windows down.
Then my wife deserves a break from the bank and a change of pace too. I don't know how she makes it all day long on her feet as a supervisor in a 12 stall drive in bank, commercial window, and a walk up window to take care of customers for eight hours with just a lunch break. She has no foot mat to stand on while at the windows waiting on customers in very high heel shoes. Of course the tellers are sitting down taking care of all the cars that drive thru while she runs back and forth to attend their needs for a supervisor.
Oh well that is a job she dearly loves and have had since her college days in New Orleans. Now at 61 next month she wants to retire when she makes it to 70 years of age. I'll be too old to help her count her money each month by that time if I'm still here.
So I'll just enjoy each time we get to go away since she loves the casinos anytime she got a few days off. The closest casino to us is five hours drive in Shreveport, LA or in Oklahoma. Going to New Orleans is an eight hours drive but she has all her family members there too. That's her favorite get away destination and she usually wins on the penny machines while playing with her baby sister close by.
I just play the quarter machines and sometimes I can play a long time on a 20 dollar bill then when it quits giving I scooter over to another machine. I think it's the idea of getting away from home doing something you like to do is what's enjoyable but winning is always better no matter how big or little you win. Maybe it's my time to win some because it's been awhile now.
My daughter and grand daughter just got back yesterday from New Orleans visiting family and I don't know if they are wanting to go right back with us or not, I don't think so but school is out!
I shall return rested some and maybe with some dollars too to fix my car. See all of you later! Hold down the Fort!
