We all have dreams of winning the lottery. And, then we dream of what we would do with all that money. Sure, you jump in when the jackpots grow big in Powerball and Mega Millions, but what about the other games? Do you buy a ticket?A Rockford woman did, as Fox17 reported, and does regularly, but this one morning was special, and she  won $4 million after stopping to grab a lottery ticket on her way to work.

Her name is Dawn Force and her $4 million dollar win was on Michigan Lottery’s Worth Millions instant game ticket she bought at a Citgo gas station on her way to work one morning.

Dawn said, “Every morning on my way to work, I stop for a pop and grab a Lottery ticket. When I got to work that morning, I scratched the ticket in the parking lot. I couldn’t stop shaking when I revealed the ‘4MIL’ symbol."

So, now what? Well, she won't quit her job, that's for sure. “Once I calmed down, I drove back to the gas station to get the ticket scanned. Everyone there was so happy for me. After that, I went back to work. I don’t plan to quit my job because I love what I do!”

Dawn chose to receive a one-time lump sum of $2.5 million instead of the annuity payments totaling $4 million.

“It has been a rough few years for my family and winning this prize is a true miracle. I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, not worry about money, and enjoy time with my husband and daughter.” Force said.

Force says she plans to use her winnings to pay bills and help family members.
