If I hit the lottery, of course it would change my life.
No debts, make a sizable donation to a charity or charities, share with family and friends.
That is what I would do.
Realistically, I won't hit the lottery since I rarely play.
I have a hard time parting with a buck.
I have found spending a few dollars or sometimes spending nothing at all can still make me smile.
This week I was the recipient of two green brooms that cost 50 cents each. After Halloween sales.
Since I have often joked about arriving at my office on a broomstick, why not have two glittery brooms hanging on either side of my desk? And they can stay up through the holidays since they are green.
A string of lights that are also a phone charger on my desk. Cost $10
A small ornament size light up ceramic Christmas tree from Walmart. Cost $8.00.
A small 1955 pick up truck to go with the ceramic tree. Cost $6.50
Three small trees to go in the pickup truck. Cost 1.50
Watching a very good college football game on a fall afternoon with the fireplace going in the background. Cost $0 (the wood was leftover from last year)
My family from Florida, New York sent me great pictures of the Rockefeller Center tree being cut down just a few streets away from their home. Monetary cost zero but it took time for them to take those pictures for me.
Grand total $27.00 for a season's worth of happiness and memories.
Actually, it's priceless.
See you next week.
