The best phone call ever

A few weeks ago there were some folks in BC who won the local lottery...a jackpot of $25 million dollars. It was a fun story to listen too.

2 days later, Hubby was at work when one of his staff called. She called to quit her job...her parents had just won the lottery and didn't want/need to work at the gym anymore...

That must have been the best phone call to make ever!!!!

It would be nice to make that call one day...

Would you quit working altogether? Would you see to it that your kids could quit working, too? What would you do with yourself? Grapefruit champagne sorbet everyday? Just curious...

hmm..I think I'd first help out my sisters and brothers on both sides with their mortgages and school fees. Put some away for my girls' future. Set up a foundation for scholarships for inner city kids. Then open up a coffeeshop where coffee, conversation and welcome would happen...a third place for people who wouldn't walk through a church door could find a space to talk or not talk about faith.

Not that I've thought about it...=-)

Ha, nice, thanks.

I think I'd pay off different friends' school loans and from there don't really know. Learn about and become an art dealer? Give some to your foundation. In many respects I'm already doing what I want to do, and you can't buy a husband and kids :)
