I won!

December 16th, 2008 at 02:03 am

A poinsettia. At my company Christmas party. It is very pretty. I guess you would call it ivory. I would have preferred winning a weeks vacation but oh well.

The food was amazing and out of this world. All you could eat and I ate until i thought I would burst. Mashed potatoes, chicken, ham, green beans, noodles, rolls, pop and for dessert I had date pudding (heaven on earth) and a few bites of coconut cream pie.

I need to exercise!

The biggest prize they gave away was a lcd or plasma (something like that) large television. The woman who won it is worth close to one million dollars. If you ask me that is just wrong. Knowing her though, she will probably give it away of donate it to charity...she is a very nice person. I just felt bad because I sat with my friend ML. and I wanted her to win something like that.

ML. is the one that can't afford to get her kids anything this year for Christmas. I gave her the two pair of jeans for her daughter tonight plus another Hollister shirt and a 2.00 huggies coupon.

We had a blast. Her boyfriend is HILARIOUS. (Though very dirty sometimes!)
Our other friend R. who is transgendered woman, sat with us and I was kind of disappointed in a middle aged gentlemen at a neighboring table giving her the "evil eye." Maybe I am too sensitive about this. Anyway, we had a good time.

Today was a NSD! Amazingly. Just got to make it through Thursday. 3 more days.

    Glad you won! I heard that Pointsettas are generally sold in pots way to small for their root structure to create a lot of flowers and that ultimately kills the plant after a few weeks. So if you like the plant, re plant it in a larger pot. I still have my pointsettas from last year living on my back deck.

    Thanks for the tip...I didn't even know they would live that long!

    A pointsetta isn't nearly as nice as the big TV, but at least you won't have to claim it on your taxes as prize winnings! LOL It always seems like the people who don't need to win anything win the most.

    Do you have pets? Just be careful if you do, because pointsettas are poisonous!
