big lottery money today!

picture this....
i think the lottery is up to $208 million...
wow! what would YOU do with all that?
i would start with giving westwood a large
chunk, then i'd get all new camera equipment!
yes, in that order! :)
i don't really have any debt, so i guess i'd
like for gary and i to travel and then i would
also set aside funds for my nieces & nephews
for education. okay, so i might try a little
"restylane" and a little mini face lift! i mean,
let's be honest, right? we all want to do a little
something but it's too darn expensive!! :)

but the biggest thing would be what
nicki and i talked about yesterday for her
birthday visit (which, by the way DID turn into
another "3-hour tour"!!)
we want to open an art~spa facility in the southwest!
so i think i would like to fund that as well.
buy a chunk of property and throw a huge,
beautiful lodge on it with a barn for horses
and other animals for the guests to ride, feed etc..
art classes, photography classes...
day trips, spa services and fabulous food & wine
and a kitchy little gift shop! oh, and beds with
the highest thread count sheets ever made!!!
ahhhhhhhhh...okay, who wants to come!???
i think i'm there already!

nicki nad i had a 2 hour birthday coffee visit at
dunn brother's followed by a quickie lunch at
"jake o'connor's". this time i had the fish & chips..
another delicious dish! i just love that place!
it was PACKED!

here's what 43 looks like! pretty darn good!!




nicki & scott had another screening for their
black belts last night....should find out soon how
they did. they'll test in march if they passed this
screening and one more (to be fair, i should say
"when" they pass!!)

i'll dig up some images from the fight a week ago
and post them tomorrow!
have a great weekend!
