Yay, a raffle! Happy St. Patrick's Day! 🍀

This happened pretty recently, but I felt lucky when I got my cat back. We were having a dispute with one of our neighbors who was keeping our cats and wouldn't give them back. We managed to get Wookie a while ago, but we still needed Caramel. Well a few days ago, one of our other neighbors called to say they spotted Caramel on the neighbor's porch. I'm just so amazed that my brother and I were able to make it there in time and get Caramel to approach us to bring her home. I felt so happy and lucky in that moment. We got my cat back quickly and without any trouble - All it took was a bit of time. 💚🐱
 
Happy St. Patricks day! Irish person here- will be celebrating at the pub tonight 🍻

A time I felt lucky?

Anyone who's in the creative field knows how difficult the job market is these days... especially for new grads with little to no industry experience. Without revealing too much about myself, I graduated last Spring and spent about 8 or 9 months "freelancing" while applying to jobs in my field. Nothing was landing.

On a whim, I reached out to a remote studio that I applied to an internship for that I did not get a couple months prior. I really loved their culture and their tiny tiny small team of designers. They were so cool. I said if they were ever hiring again for full time positions, I'd love to be notified or remembered. On a streak of lucky coincidences, the designer I emailed remembered me, loved me, they were hiring that exact next week for a Junior position, I got an interview, got a second interview, got a THIRD interview, and eventually landed the job of my DREAMS. I'm now a professional designer in a branding and UX studio with a really small supportive, creative team. I love my job and I'm finally feeling like a true adult and creative. It's been about a month and a half since I began. I feel so blessed and so lucky in my life, it's crazy to think about 3 months ago I had no idea what I was going to do. 2023 is really doing wonderful things! 🍀🍀🍀

Cheers everyone!
 
Happy At Patrick's Day!
Thanks for another fun raffle!
I felt lucky when I visited a zoo with my great aunt and saw an okapis. I know it was years ago, but I still think it was cool I saw them in person.
 
I am on the move today, but would love to celebrate with my TBT friends: cheers to you beautiful people!

I felt super lucky to win the shamrock last year (or was it 2021?) but then let it go so maybe I’ve used up my luck…
 
happy st patricks day tbt! 🍀

I felt lucky to be chosen by my cat 🥹 she was looking out the window when I was entering the shelter and plopped immediately to let me pet her even though we only met a minute ago. walked right into the carrier so she can come home with me 😭
 
I feel lucky in general, I'm not sick and even if I had several accidents, I've never been seriously injured. I'm also lucky at finding money (or Halloween candies) on the ground, maybe because I'm always looking at my feet? Recently, while doing errands, I got caught in a snowstorm; I came out of the store and it was snowing so much that I was not seeing anything in front of me apart something blue dancing in the wind, I followed the blue thing and it turned out to be a $5 that led me to the car! So far I found more than $75 on the ground. I'm just unlucky in raffles, random name generators hate me.

Happy St. Patrick's Day everybody! 🍀 Good Luck!🍀💰🍀

ahh another wholesome event here at the Bell Tree ☺️💗

So, last year when I was going through my pandemic blues I started spending a lot of time at a park near my house. I'd read, look at the sky, nap... All the good stuff. I was completely unbothered there too, because at that point in 2021 the park was essentially abandoned and the weeds and leaves had taken over.

Then the bad weather came and for a couple of weeks I couldn't go. But... When the weather finally picked up, I realized that the rain had transformed that patch of grass into a lush and wonderful clover field. In the days that followed I would bring in a picnic blanket and lay down there to read, but I'd get distracted by looking at the beautiful patterns the clovers made.

By the end of the year I had every other page on my copy of Wuthering Heights book-marked by a four-leaf clover. Alright... It was actually just 12. But still!

Can't say those brought any extra luck into my life, but finding them did feel lucky enough!

Happy St. Patrick's Day everybody! 💚

Happy St Patrick's Day everyone! 🍀💚

The last time I felt lucky was when I got 3 shiny Pokémon in 2 days in Pokémon Go. They are Mudkip, Absol and Numel. Then I got 2 shiny costumed Pikachus during the Hoenn event. May not seem like a lot, but I very rarely ever find shinies, even in the console games!
