I thought I was dreaming
« on: May 04, 2010, 11:41:00 AM »
I stayed home from work this morning just to see the drawing results for sheep, moose, and goat. After close to twenty years of trying, I drew a sheep tag! Not a big deal to alot of you folks, but a HUGE deal to me. WOW! I still can't believe it.

I wonder what my super will say when I tell him I need a month off work?

I'm not bragging guys, just REALLY PUMPED!!

I am happy for you.   Thanks for sharing.  

Cannot wait to read the stories and see the pictures.

BTW:  When you tell the boss you need a month off, don't tell him or her that you took the morning off just to watch the lottery.  That might be a bad start to the conversation. :-)
