Recently, I went to a preschool Christmas concert and their parents’s group was having a raffle to raise money. I could get five tickets for $20 and it was for a good cause. I never expected to win anything. Someone right after me bought 60 tickets so I figured my five wouldn’t win. There were 3 incredible raffle choices.
Imagine my surprise when I got a phone call Wednesday morning informing me, I had won the luxury basket worth over $1000. So many wonderful items like a Lola blanket, a skylight calendar, a hatch restore, a diffuser, a spa gift certificate, a car detailing gift certificate and more.
I’ll be honest I had to look up what a skylight calendar and a hatch restore was because I didn’t know.
What surprised me the most is how many people told me they were so glad I won. They thought I really deserved it. I was overwhelmed by their generous and kind thoughts.
I haven’t really been pampered in a very long time. Oh there is the random pedicure and even more random manicure but massages, face treatments, getting my car detailed, I just can’t afford to do those things anymore. So to be showered with so many wonderful luxurious items is an unexpected blessing.
It’s a wonderful way to end the year 2025 and a really great way to begin 2026.
My life on an unexpected path 
Congratulations! You deserve it. Those kinds of prizes should go to those who truly appreciate them.

I went to check out the Lola blankets online and every single color/pattern (there are 20+) are completely sold out! Enjoy snuggling with your new cozy blanket 🙂
