Where to begin???

Hmmmm.......... live in housekeeper and masseuse ! lol

I would donate as much as possible to animal rescue places.
I would give my kids just enough money so that they don't lose their dreams and ambition.
I would help anyone I can.

Oh and I would go back to my avatar hahahaha

First, I'd buy a new house, one with a loft area upstairs for quilting with a nice view. Then I'd buy a long arm to fit into my new sewing loft. I've have the kitchen custom made with slate and copper. (not that I've given this much thought, tee hee) and I'd pay off my mom's house so she could retire.

I definitely like the idea of the cleaning lady. I have three in mind that I would have on a retainer. After that, I would share with many people I know. Of course, Airedale Rescue would benefit, as well.

Take my dream trip to Galapagos Islands AND buy a pop-up camper trailer, pay off my son's college education bill and yes, I would quit working so I could quilt and volunteer. Oohwee - fun thinking about all this!

First I'd have to buy a ticket :-) :lol:

Everything would be paid off! Then remodel the house to my liking. After that savings savings savings.

I would SO be OUT of Oregon!!
We'd buy a home, make sure the kids are taken care of, and slowly play with the rest.... that's providing it was a Powerball jackpot of some size.
If it was less than several million? I'd still get out of Oregon, and save the rest for that proverbial rainy day!

Pay off everything, starting with state and federal taxes.
Set up trust funds for kids and grands (not large enough to spoil them, but large enough to be helpful should any lose their jobs or become ill) and set up a free animal sterilization group for the entire county.
Build a new house with my own ideas in it.
Buy off a politician so that s/he would vote for pure foods.
Go on cruises with a sister.
Get some "help" from Los Angeles plastic surgeons.

You would be at the top of my list for sharing and I would definitely buy you all the Yankee fabric I could find, just as long as it would be mailed directly to you. I could not possibly allow it to be in MY house. :roll: :roll: :roll:
