Sweeping

I love to sweep. My grandma would be so proud to hear me say that until she realizes that it has nothing to do with cleaning. I don't know how many of you have seen the latest TLC show called High Stakes Sweepers, but I watched it once and now I'm hooked! I'm not just talking about watching the show, but sweeping as well. There is just something about the possibility of winning something that essentially took little to no effort to win that I just can't resist! The most I've ever won, EVER, is $40.00 on a bingo scratch card, and that was over 15 years ago. So I feel like I'm well overdue to win something, don't you agree? How else am I ever going to be able to drive a new Ford Mustang or go to Ireland with my husband? By saving and saving my pennies? I highly doubt it. Having a young family, a mortgage and endless updates needing done on the house kinda takes precedent over those things these days. But oh, can you just imagine the Fed-Ex man coming to your door with an envelope that has forms in it that reads "CONGRATULATIONS! YOU JUST WON A BRAND NEW CAR!!! I would literally FREAK OUT! Probably hyperventilate and pass out until my dogs lick my face back into consciousness or my little Lucy seizes the opportunity of no supervision and finds a way to set off the fire alarm. At any rate, it would be fabulous. I've been doing it about a week now and eagerly wait for the mail. I don't know why because none of the giveaways have ended within the week, but I just can't help it. The mail man is my new best friend. I don't know how long I'll be able to keep the enthusiasm up about sweeping without having won anything, but for now it's fun. You better believe it though that I will be shouting from the roof top the second I win anything so keep your ears open :)
