Joan Ginther: Does she still play the Lottery?Reply
Her most recent claims in TX are from 9/04/12 with 36 of them ranging from $5 to $1,000. Here's information I received from the Texas Lottery for claims from 01/01/2010 through 11/24/19. It looks like she mailed at least some of her smaller wins in as it includes a lot of amounts less than $500.

Joan Ginther: Does she still play the Lottery?
