The Border resident was one of 14 division one winning entries across the country in Saturday's draw and pocketed $2,142,857.15.
She was completely oblivious to her good fortune until an official from The Lott made contact with her on the weekend.
"Really!? Oh my god! That's amazing," she screamed.
"My kids will be excited. That is amazing.
"I don't play all the time, but I thought I'd grab an entry for this draw.
"Like most people, I've got some home renovations I'd love to finish off. Everything's half done. That's what I want to do.
"I'd also love to go overseas with my kids and their kids. I'd love to go to London and Ireland. It would be a great family holiday together."
