Thank You, Loki

A week ago I ordered a speaker so I could listen to music louder on my phone or ipad.  It worked okay. It was only a little louder on the phone. Much louder on my ipad but after two uses it died on me. I think I blew it.

It was a small single speaker, kinda like a ball. And I really like my music loud when I work in the workshop.  I'll be at it soldering tonight and finishing up 6 trays of pieces for Sirius Rising.

Anyway, the thing broke so I was back to square one and out $20.

So today I went to a benefit with raffle tickets for gift items and gift baskets.  They were mostly food, cooking supplies, toys, BBQ stuff, etc.  There was one table of high ticket items. I had donated two stained glass boxes worth about $180 for the benefit. A really nice woman I had been rooting for ended up with them.  Nice!  And I really wanted this HUGE Tupperware set with insulated travel bag.  Really good set!

So the wind had picked up and knocked over some of the bags for the tickets. One of our tickets must have fallen out of the Tupperware selection's bag.  Someone must have picked it up and put it in the bag next to it.

Our number got called and Tom went up to pick up the item.  He comes back with a wireless speaker, really high quality item.  He looks at me like, did you put in for this?  No, I thought he had.

So due to a gust of wind, one of only three things we won, was a wireless speaker, WAY BETTER than the one that had broken.  We also won a slow cooker (Tom's idea) and a bottle of Rum.  Guess who is getting some of that!

Thank You, Loki
