A great read already, whether or not you're planning to continue it.<br /><br />It feels like a BIT of a stretch that Julian's lottery winnings are enough to bring hundreds of people flocking, yet are gone after buying 1 car and 1 TV, but then again lottery jackpots are often paid in even annual amounts over a decade or two. It could be just this year's allotment that's gone, which means that April will suddenly be in for a vastly extended "sucking up" period if she wants a shot at the next 90-95% of it. That's a huge carrot...on the end of quite an extended stick.Meisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14385548637807641027noreply@blogger.com
