when i was 7 or 8 i won a tiarra during a raffle at a fundraiser my mom took me to. it was supposedly the sugar plum fairy's tiarra. i still have it. other than that, i won $70-something dollars playing the lottery and 2 movie passes on the radio.
Normally, I never win. I'm not lucky. But one time my husband (who also never wins) put my name in a drawing and I won a professional Kitchen Aid stand mixer. It's huge and beautiful! My husband said that anytime he puts people's names in drawings, they win. He never does.
I won $1300.00 in the lottery once and missed the 6th number by two but thats the only thing I have ever won. But hey, if we wake up everyday aren't we all lucky?
Ignore my response from this morning. I was listening to the radio and they asked for caller #1 for tickets to the Broadway musical "Moving Out" and I won. I am thrilled because I wanted to go. Looks like my luck is turning around. :)
I tell my kids that we're lucky. My mother always told me that we're lucky. The luck comes in being held up, being saved at the brink, getting a check the day before disaster, nobody dying too young.
I think I'm quite lucky, but it's because I have a good life. It has nothing to do with winning anything, which I really haven't, except for little piddly things over the years.
Normally, I don't consider myself to be incredibly lucky. However, there have been some times in my life when I have won a nice chunk of change on those little scratch lottery tickets.

I feel I am pretty lucky. I haven't won that much, but I do pretty good at the casinos most times, and that is all luck. (at least with the slots)

Even tho my last name is Luck...no, I am not lucky in the least bit.

I don't feel I'm very luck at all. I can win at games (card/board) but when there is a prize or money involved, I never win.

I guess I'm not "lucky" because I once won tickets to a major concert festival in Chicago. Then I got sick with bronchitis and couldn't go.

I don't really 'believe' in luck. Thing happen - sometimes they're good, sometimes they're bad.
