I Am Going To Be A Milliionaire

Really, seriously, I am.

I will be winning the $245 million powerball on Wednesday.

So here is a synopsis of what I have planned:
  • Give my required month's notice at work (wink wink).
  • Pay off every bill we owe.
  • Throw one helluva party for family and friends where I get to play Santa Claus.
  • Pick a tropical luxury spot and go relax for about a week - a week is all I need because I'd get bored after that and miss my puppies too much.
  • Go apartment shopping in New York.
  • Go beach house shopping in Santa Barbara.
  • Contact architect and designers to make our current house over the top. We like it and don't want to move, but now we can do to it everything our hearts desire.
  • Go live in one of the other locations while the renovation is being done.

Okay, I haven't thought much further than that yet. Obvious things like charitable donations and giving family and friends chunks of money will happen. David has already made the decision that we should give them all a good chunk at the beginning with the warning - "don't come back and ask for more". If they get more, it will be our idea and intention. I already know some people who will not head that advice.

So only a few more days of poverty.....seriously.

I will say I told you so you doubters.

Good luck with that. I sure hope I don't beat you to it! Thanks for the heads up. Oh, and if you do win don't leave us all hanging like Cory & Christine did.

OMG! I really think I know who would come calling for more $$. (and it WOULD NOT be your mom!) Best wishes!

mysterygirl: No worries. There would be so much more interesting content to blog about.

mistylea: You are right, but unfortunately, she wouldn't be the only one.

I think you should give a million dollars apiece to all of the writers of the blogs on your blogroll. Just a suggestion.

Hmmm...that is an idea.
