John's weekend assignment

Money.  Millions of dollars.  For little old me?  What would I do with it?  Hmm.........

2 million dollars for charities?  A large amount for my church and all that they support.  Mental health issues are near and dear to me so NAMI and other such local organizations would get money, local organizations that help with abandoned and abused animals, not PETA because I just don't agree with everything they stand for.  I would love to start a non-profit to help poor people with their pets medical stuff, spay, neuter, shots, etc....I learned with Sadie how expensive pets can be.  I think more people would take better care of their pets if they just had the money.  Local church groups that help senior citizens would get some money. As well as the local Meals on Wheels.  

2 million for me?  Family first.  A house in the country for my parents.  A new truck for dad, a maid and a cook would make mom happy.  Money in a trust fund for my nieces, my brother to the dentist.  

One of those picnic shelter things for my church.  It would be so cool to have a couple of those.  The church heating/air conditioning could be updated also.  

 I would buy some land and have a house built.  A special "cat" room would be included with climbing things, etc....with windows from floor to ceiling and a little screened in porch for them to go out onto.  A new car.  I think I would like that cook and maid deal also.  

Money would have to be put back so I don't have to worry about losing thatnew place because I couldn't pay the taxes.  Investment (safe one, no high risk here) so I will have enough money to live on.  

 I would love to own some real artwork too.  Like a few pieces of Jon Rattenbury's work.  

I have always wanted to have a little bookstore.  A funky little one with chairs and sofas.  No big chain store.  Just a nice little cozy one.  

Have I spent 2 million yet?  If not I have probably came close, don't ya think?
