Off late it feels like I am the winning the games because of 'opponent's blunder' - and all of then rated around or higher than me.
There is NO such thing as luck in chess. Chess is a game of skill, equal position, equal chances. :-)
Everything is happening for a reason.
Like, for example, a GM blunders a piece for free maybe in 1 out of 100 games.
You can consider yourself "lucky" be that person who gets the free piece, but still, there are other reasons GM blunders it, and it is not luck. Lack of concentration, being tired etc. - all this influence the game because we are humans.
I kinda doubt that they are blundering away every game to you.
Maybe you improved?!

I got a lucky win in a OTB game where my opponent promoted to a queen, but used two hands. He did this twice and so I won. Very lucky and didnt deserve to win. Feel as if I got what I deserved as now in OTB chess I'm on a 9 game losing streak
either way you are a very good player
