Wii won!!

Thursday of last week the XBOX burned up.

Devastated is the only way I can describe how N. felt.
You would never know he had a perfectly functioning GameCube.
" I can't play Lego StarWars on the GameCube (whining, moaning,waah, wahh)!"

Inconvenienced was how I felt, how can I have the kids home for a 4 day weekend high on Valentine treats without video games?!
I really am one of those moms now, "Who needs a sitter when you've got an XBOX?" .

Friday I got a call from the local grocery store, Lees Market, telling me I won a Wii Fit.
"Great, if only I had a Wii!", was my thought, still contemplating if I should pop open the XBOX and attempt to fix it myself.

Carrying the heavy boxes I had won out of the store a few hours later, something dawned on me, "This isn't just a Fit, this is a Wii also!!".

How much time do you think the winner of this awesome surprise got to spend playing? If less than 5 minutes was your answer, you win too! That doesn't really matter though, the important thing is that I hardly knew the kids were there.

Lucky me.

Seriously??? Wow! That's like $400. Way to go. And perfect timing. It's a little too weird for me though. Teach me how to win things.
