This morning, at just after seven I heard my phone ring.
Normally this is early to get a phone call but I saw it was my youngest daughter so was immediately concerned.
What's up?
She said, Mom I'm shaking.
Me, Why?
Her answer, you know the radio contest Ricks Rapid Fire? (A contest where you must successfully answer 10 trivia questions in 60 seconds or less. You win $20. For each correct answer, or $1,000.00 if all you answers are correct.)
She had 10 correct answers, and heard those words, Congratualtions you just won one thousand dollars.
Maybe she'll take me shopping?

This was through our local radio station 105.6 EZ Rock. The morning show runs this contest every morning. Most people win between $20- $180.00, she won the big prize $1,000. For giving 10 correct answers in 60 seconds.

Or at least take you out to dinner! I would have failed if it were me. I don't function under pressure. LOL

I'm sure that she will share at least a little bit of this windfall. She has been talking about a new carpet for her living room. I bet she goes shopping for that soon.

I´m afraid I don´t belive in those things anymore. Most of them are scams. Did she win?

She did. This isn't the first contest she has won in that station. It is certainly the biggest.

All of my children are smart. She has a really good head for trivia. This is one reason she is so good at her job of librarian.

@Dextoi She will be picking up the cheque later this week. Then, she will be deciding how to spend it. I think it will be set aside for her new sofa and carpet. Either that or the landscaping that needs to be done to repair her retaining wall.

You probably remember my daughter from Bubblews. She wrote as Boekmeisje. So far I have not been able to entice her to come to write on Mylot. It may have something to do with the payment she didn't receive,

@Morleyhunt I got duped of over $700 in that site. Now karma has hit the site with closure.

It was exciting news. Much better news than two of my other daughters who called me to let me know that they're cars had been wrecked on slippery roads

She is. Sometime this week she will go to pick up her cheque. Then she can plan exactly how to spend this windfall.

I am very excited for her. She has a few things on her wish list. A year ago she purchased her first home and I know there are a few things whe has been putting off because it wasn't in her budget. This windfall might make at least one or two things possible.

I'll probably accompany her, even if she doesn't spend any of that money on me.

She, like me likes to learn random facts. She is a voracious reader which also seems to help in retaining a lot of knowledge.

I expect she will now buy either the couch she has been eyeing or the carpet she was looking for. I'm happy for her.

I'm sure that I'll get to go with her, but I don't really expect her to spend anything on me.
