The morning after...
I've been grumping to myself because several of my friends haven't posted anything interesting to their journals in weeks. But of course, neither have I. Naturally the word interesting is what keeps me from writing. Life is busy and full and fascinating, but my journal puts me to sleep. I guess you had to be there.
It's Thanksgiving weekend. The food has been very good. With the notable exception of John the beloved, family has been far away. The highlight so far has been imagining how we would spend our first million if we win Power ball, now up to about 64 million I think. Even after taxes we could do a lot of good and have a lot of fun. Now we've decided we need to work on our values.. as soon as we get the basement organized.
Here's our budget (most expensive to least):
House repairs & improvements
2nd house & furnishings (We'll have to live somewhere while this house is being overhauled.)
Gifts
Travel
Debts
New cameras & lenses
Car
General living expenses (food, mostly)
17-in. Mac Book Pros
Goodall Guitar
Dentistry
Clothes
Professional Advisers (tax, security, attorney, etc.)
