LUCK

        I've had a good string of luck lately. If I talk about it will the run end? 

        Well I've just got to tell you my luck anyway.

        A few months ago the bank made a boo boo which didn't  lose us any money but created a headache for more than just me. My tax man had to find out why I got several thousand more of a refund from income tax. The tax dept. had to discover what was wrong and how to fix it. So the bank came up with several treats for inconveniencing me.

      Then I told you abut my find of  wheel chair and walker. That makes three instances of good fortune.

     Well it went on to four pieces of good luck. When I was on my way to the birding walk last Sat . morning, I found a nice crisp 20 dollar bill on the curb. I looked around there was no one in the area. So I guess the 20 dollar bill is mine!

     So onward and no issues of superstition of talking about good luck. 

    Funny how luck runs in streaks.

  1. Alright for your streak of good luck! I'm happy for you. For me sometimes good luck is not having bad luck!

  2. May your good luck continue (unless of course it would rather cross the Atlantic and reside with me for a week or two!).

  3. That's funny! A week ago a crisp Canadian twenty dollar bill blew right out of my wallet and was lifted into the sky by a gust of wind. What is the serial number? I will check it with my own records.

    1. Yes, that's funny alright. You never know what could happen. I spent the bill right away so that the evidence is gone!

    1. Well that was blind luck. I never thought about that. I have a tough enough time to remember the date let alone what it's important for.

  6. I hope it is only Good Luck which runs in streaks - we don't want bad luck doing the same.

  9. Well, that's much, much better than a streak of bad luck. We all have both kinds, but not everyone notices the good luck! Well done.

  15. Hooray for found money. Maybe it was from the Feds for messing up the tax refund. Linda in Kansas

  16. I have had lots of good things happen in my life but when we talk of luck, the thing I remember is when I won a ham for Christmas in a raffle at work. That would be almost 30 years ago.
    I hope you enjoyed your lucky 20!
