Millions, what to do with millions?

The lottery here is worth 39 million. I actually broke down and bought a two dollar ticket on it. Cannot win if you do not take a chance right? What on earth would I do with 39 million though. It would certainly change my life. I can just see friends and family coming out of the woodwork to try and get a piece of it. I would have to hire guards that is for sure. I would check myself into the Mayo Clinic and have a full medical diagnosis done and find out if anything can be done to help me. Weird but that is the first thing I would do. Getting a chauffer and a hummer would rank right up there too. Not to ever have to drive again unless I so chose would be wonderful. But really 39 million is a lot. Could a person actually spend that in a lifetime. Oh Yes, could I? I am not sure. But my kids would sure have easier lives. My Mom and my MIL would get quit the mothers day presents. New houses for both of them. Travel oh I would love to travel. That would be wonderful. That would be more of an education for the kids than the school could provide at this point in time. What a daydream. 39 million.

I want to thank my friend Jes, anything you see on the blog other than my posts, is becuase of her getting it there. Thanks Jes. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it.

April 19 is a rough day

20 years ago today I miscarried a baby. I can imagine myself with a 20 year old running around. Maybe even a grandma, that is a rough thought. For years when I could not conceive I wondered if I was being punished for miscarrying my first. I was young, got pregnant in college, and was sick all the time. I had morning sickness 24 hours a day every single day, I lost a lot of weight. I was alone and I was scared. I went to bed one night feeling very ill, I woke up two days later in the hospital. I had hemarraged and been uncousious, and almost died. I miscarried in my fifth month. When I missed college some friends tried to reach me and couldn't so called my ex and he had the landlord let him in. It saved my life. I have always felt so guilty that I was just that little bit relieved that it had happened. I was so young, and on my own, and did not want a child raised the way that I had been raised. Feelings just all over the place. It hit me like a ton of bricks again w

Well I made it and I survived it

I am finally 40. Entering the prime of my life. I think it is all how you look at things. So if I look positive it will be postitive. This is the decade that is going to be about me. I had an adult decade on education, I had an adult decade on family, now I want one on me. Thanks Jenni for calling last night, I miss you and you are welcome to come back to Alberta and visit any time. I got the cutest birday card from Poncho with her original photography on it of a koala, I love it. I feel spoiled and loved and it is nice to feel that way. I got a cake sent to me at work yesterday, a balloon arrangement with a teddy bear and chocolates and some basic grey paper. A bunch of girls from SJ went together and organized it all. I feel so honoured to be counted as one of their friends. I got to talk to geminigirl (Carrie) yesterday as well, she is one of the sweetest people I know. Thanks for calling.

Back to school

Image
DD first day of grade three is today. She is very excited to be going back, and hoping she gets her dream teacher. There was a fiasco last year at the start of school and DD started with her dream teacher and then they moved her twice more and she ended up with a split teacher room. This year she hopes she gets Mrs. K, for good. I hope the school has their act together this year. She didn't want me to drive her, she didn't want me to follow the school bus, she wanted to do it on her own just like last year. She was happy to have mom wait at the bus stop with her though.
