A Birthday Wish

Tomorrow I turn the big 4-0.

Yes, I'm REALLY THAT OLD!

So, for my birthday, my greatest wish is for more contestants for my contest, more donations and thank you cards given, and prosperity and abundance for all who are participating in the prosperity experiment.

For those who have not heard the latest, I was laid off my job last Thursday. I took it as just being a part of business, which in this economic climate, it is. My employers were astounded that I had such a positive attitude about the whole thing, and I felt that being a stinker about it was not the way to exit. I wanted to be remembered for my positivity, not my negativity. So, what happened next just affirmed my faith in this whole process.

The following day, Friday, my mother-in-law and I made a trip to Brainerd for her to take care of some paperwork. On the way home, she suggested we stop at Grand Casino Mille Lacs and have lunch. Ok. So, we had a lovely lunch at the Grand Buffet (their bread pudding with the whiskey sauce is divine!), and she wanted to try her luck.

I had borrowed her $10 the week before and she paid me back for it. I had another $10 bill and a $5 dollar bill left in my purse, that was all. So, we got change, and off we went. I played a Sizzling 7 machine and got nothing. I turned around and she was gone. The nice lady next to me said, "I think she was heading for the restrooms." Ok. I then went exploring. I walked over to a 2 penny machine that had a fishing theme. I put the $10 that she gave me that morning in and thought, "When this is gone, we'll go." On the 3rd spin, it started going nuts!! I won!! A little over $400!!! I found my MIL, and we then left.

I never win on these things, and I have no strategy or clue how to play them. I couldn't believe it! But it was a great sign that I'm on the right path with this experiment and the rest of what I'm doing. I'm now more excited to see what the day will hold, or what will happen. I feel things more than I ever have and I am finding myself paying more attention to how I feel in certain situations about things.

I'll keep you posted if anything more develops! In the meantime, keep thinking positively and let go of any expectations as to when the prosperity will show up. That's not your job, that's God's job. Your job is to feel good, and do things that make you feel good and be giving without hesitation. Magical things will happen. Just please let me know when they do!
