A break away from real estate today and hopefully a laugh while we all wait for Powerball's huge prize drawing to get "unstuck" Enjoy...
This is a true story – the couple is deceased, OK to share…. |
The couple shared this and enjoyed many laughs from the event. Married forever they had their comfortable routines and…..
Her domain, first floor – the kitchen
At home, his domain – second floor
Normal Sunday paper – split – he likes certain sections – she likes hers
He brings the paper in and divides it for them to share – retreating upstairs with his sections
On this one Sunday (following a BIG lotto drawing) he does the routine split but messes up and leaves “his” lotto section downstairs
She did not know he left “his section” featuring the winning numbers with her share of the newspaper
At the time he was well over 300 pounds and not really motivated to come down stairs for lotto numbers
So he yells down – “M – what are the lotto numbers”
One by one as she read them they were “matching” perfectly to the tickets he had in his hand
He explained later his heart was pounding as he jumped up and ran down the stairs
M explained she heard this awful noise shaking the house – BOOM BOOM BOOM
It was J running down the stairs yelling “WE WON, WE WON”
He gets to the kitchen and finds her holding the prefilled lotto card they use to buy their lotto tickets every week
After a brief pause, he asked what she was doing with that card and she replied “you asked for our lotto numbers and I read them to you”
And their winnings quickly vaporized
