And my Sewing wing with Pleanty of Windows.Have to have a longarm,featherwieght, and a treadle. Custmbuilt shelfs, cabnets, cutting table, Sewing stations, iron station. And a large stash and noations to keep me busy the rest of my life.

In my dreams: But it is nice to dream.

She and her sister custom built this house with their own "wings" plus kitchen made for cooking (her sister is almost like a chef and she is really into baking) She has 2 ovens, 2 dishwashers etc. Plus they have a sunroom and wrap around porches.
I love it, but I also love the fact that my little house is almost paid for!
Me I'd settle for all my bills and family's bills paid and enough money to buy something I see without worrying about having enough money to pay for it.
I would also like to give a huge donation to the Special Olympics and to the organizations that care for the Down's and special needs people. My brother has Down's and AZ is cutting off all of his aid!

Every time someone mentions the lottery my first thought is this:
I would want someone to put fresh sheets on my bed daily.
I would want a massage at least once daily.
That's it!!
Of course, I would help all my family, and donate a HUGE chunk to animal welfare :D
And a lot of what the rest of you posted but that would come after the above lolololol

After all the bills are paid, and the kids have their own homes, I would want to buy a house or apartment in various places in the world and then spend lots of time traveling, but still have a "home" base, instead of hotels. If it is really the big one that I hit, my own plane and yacht for traveling on!

Pay off vet bills of www.englishtoyspanielrescue.org , get more regular help [am disabled] and buy every ETS deemed to be in need.
Buy a house to let at v low rent to friends.
Give husband enough for future motors.
Travel more. BUT most of all IF money could buy health would do without above as I could do more myself and work part -time.

Oh, baby!! You may not believe this, but I was thinking that last night. I was picturing myself inviting everyone close enough, to come on over. Now.......how close do you live to Danbury, Connecticut? Because if it ever happens, that is where I will be living. :lol:

Of course see that my parents, kids, and siblings were taken care of.
For me....another place in the country. Ours is all trees, and I would like an area for a barn. Definitely a horse! Plenty of bedrooms, dream sewing room. The usual. lol
