Well, we weren't even close - there go all my new found friends and family. I guess it's back to Plan A - sell house, retire, buy house in TV and move - not as exciting, but I'll get there eventually. Then again, if there is no winner tonight, there is always Friday...

My husband bought a ticket tonight. Today was my grand daughters birthday. Maybe this will bring us luck! What would we do? Catch the next flight to Orlando, rent a car, buy a courtyard and start singing!

I forgot about the less-than-grand winning combinations.
Three out of our ninety tickets matched the Megaball number. Wow! - $6.00 split 18 ways - $.33/each.

Now the one set of numbers that we will never see is how much was taken in for last evenings drawing on a state by state basis.

Bought my first lottery ticket ever on Tuesday. Thought, what the heck, you can't win if you don't play and it's just a buck. I got 1 + Powerball number, for a grand prize of $3.

Hey that's a 200 percent return on investment.

As the odds of doing that again are so nil, I think I'll quit while I'm ahead.

Welcome to the family. We all love TV and are glad you are a part.

Maybe the following quote (from an unknown source) would apply: "Having more money will just make being miserable a little more palatable"............for those who are miserable because they feel they never have enough money!

Then move to the villages in the middle of the night, so my greedy family would never find me... hahaha
