Ahhh....Lottery!!!

I lived in Pennsylvania for 40 years, and they have a state lottery.  There were many times when the prize was in the millions of dollars, and being an adventurous person, I have paid my share of money to be considered for the top prize.  There have been many opportunities to ponder what I would do if I could just be lucky enough to win. 

Here is my list:

I would buy a modest home.  I hate housework and love people.  I have no need for a formal living area, or a fancy dining room.  I only need comfortable living space for my family and friends.  I would, of course apportion it to be comfortable for my pets.  I've always wanted a kennel room so that my dogs could come and go as they pleased, without having to worry about their safety.  I need a huge, fenced in yard, in which they could play.  I'd like an in ground swimming pool too.  That would be for me to play in.

I would love to have a nice car, and a truck too.  I don't need anything fancy. 

I would donate large portions to private animal rescue groups, and to private groups that help needy people. 

I would donate money to a college to help a needy person attend college.

I would pay my bills.

I would put a large portion of money in trust for my children, nieces and nephews, and if I ever have any, for my grandchildren.

I think that just knowing I had the financial freedom to do whatever I wanted to without considering the price would be winning enough.  I cant imagine not worrying about money, but it would be nice, wouldn't it?

Well, you do have quite a well thought-out list of things you would do with that lottery winnings. If you do win, perhaps you could throw a few dollars to your Communication Technology classmates. :-)

It is always nice to dream. I remember when I was younger and played a dollar here and there for a ticket with big dreams of winning. Then reality set in. My family need things that those dollars added up over time could provide.

That is so heart-breaking. I once had a pit bull puppy, but he got to where he would tear up everything around him and he began biting on me. I gave him back to my boyfriend and he looked at me pitiful while he was pulling off. I am afraid of pit bulls, because one attacked my mom and bit her on the knee down to the bone. He just ran toward her and attacked her instantly. Keep up the good work and never give up.
