“Extended family is great. If you want to know how extended your family is, just go out and win the lottery. Your phone will be ringing nonstop. And you know I’ll call you too, because I’m your fifth cousin on your father’s side.”

Yes, I’ve purchased several lottery tickets for the drawing tonight.

I’ve been asked the standard question, “What is the first thing you would do if you win?”
After mulling this over for a few days, I figured it out.

The first thing I will do when I win is to pull out my Christmas List. Everyone on my list will have an early holiday for 2016…..and a very special one, at that! I think this decision keeps things pretty simple

(Boy am I glad that my kids aren’t in school, scouts, music lessons, playing sports, attending Sunday School, etc! During those years, my list was very, very long!)

So, good luck everyone. If I can’t win, I wish you luck….especially those of you who just may have me on YOUR lists.

In the meantime, it’s always a good day to dream…….
